Abstract

A fuser debris inhibiting system and apparatus using an impregnated cleaning web. This web is impregnated with EDTA or its salts. The web can contact the fuser member directly or can contact external heat rolls which in turn contact the fuser roll. The delivery of EDTA to the surface of the fuser member substantially inhibits the formation of contaminants thereon.
