Office Depot OD2537 Printer/Copier/Fax Cleaning Kit, OD2537

I have had an epson artisan 1430 for years and years. As long as I kept print heads cleaned and calibrated, it prints great pics. A new one today is pretty expensive. So when the paper quit feeding through, I was dismayed. I am not prepared to replace a whole printer right now. It turns out that cleaning the rollers is a thing. Now I know.So I used two of these sheets and ran them through several times before the rollers began to consistently feed paper through. But like I said -- I haven't cleaned the rollers for many years. I won't make that mistake again.

Our 10 plus year old HP laser jet printer was always stopping with a paper jam code. We were looking into a new printer or repairing this one. The cost for either choice was very expensive. We chose to give the Office Depot Cleaning Kit, OD2537 a try. It seemed really expensive considering the number of cleaning sheets contained in the package. How wrong I was. It only took 1 of the 3 sheets in the package to solve our paper problems. I unfolded the special sheet and placed it on the paper stack in the drawer. I hit copy and off it went. I then sent it quickly into the process again. Then to the document feeder. Great product. I recommend it as a great value for the money. The process was quick and efficient.

Run through the document feed first or can be too wet to run through the paper path well.

I went through this very carefully hoping it would make a difference. Ultimately it took some searching but changing my printer driver was what worked in the end. Idk why it was fine first then had wheel problems but I don’t think I needed this product at all.I tried a tip from YouTube that uses a wide grosgrain (white or light color) ribbon lightly wet with windex. Feed it through like paper coming out then gently buff those wheels like you were shining a pair of upside down shoes. Move across the row of wheels and back and forth several times. I did see ink transfer to my grosgrain ribbon so it did help a bit. But changing the printer driver finally was my solution.

I picked up a used HP Laser printer which works very well, but seems to leave some marks on the pages from the rollers. So I was looking for options to clean it up. Having a page that had cleaning materials and some texture seemed like a fantastic solution. Alas these don't work very well. They don't feed very well. Part of that is because they are tri-folded and you have to unfold them The creases seem to disrupt the feed mechanisms. These pages are thick compared to normal copy paper. This also makes them difficult to feed through the machine. I found that these didnt feed very well on the first or second tries. On the third try they seem to feed ok but by that point they are drier and a little dirty from what they did take off. So maybe if you have some light marks on your pages, these might work. If you have darker marks, you might look elsewhere.

I ran one page through my scanner once and my next scan was clear again. I saw that some residual black ink most likely rubbed off on that first scan after running the page through the scanner, but no issues after that. It totally fixed the blur of my scanner. One third of my scanned pages were coming in blurry and had driven me to the point of looking to buy a new scanner, because no matter what I tried, it wasn't fixing the problem. This was my last ditch effort and it worked like a charm. if your scans are coming in blurry - this could be the solution. It saved me $300 from having to invest in a new scanner.

does what it needs to

Had no idea these existed. Worked great to clean my printer. No more streaks & smudges.
