Abstract

A system for cleaning a media transport device includes a cleaning substrate sized and configured to fit within at least a portion of a media travel pathway of the transport device. The cleaning substrate includes a cleaning face and a set of cleaning tabs that extend from the cleaning face. In use, the cleaning tabs are positioned against a set of rollers inside the currency transport device to secure the cleaning substrate in a substantially fixed position within the currency transport device. When the device is operated, the tabs are secured by the rollers and also clean the rollers.
