After removing the fuser from an HP M452 (HP M477, M377 are the same) for a paper jam after HP cleaning method, I noticed that the fuser film is quite dirty.
I've ordered pressure roller but not suppose to order the fuser film too.
So I give a try cleaning the film with isopropyl alcohol.
And it works pretty well but it's very very long to obtain a good result. You can remove all the toner deposit, but take your time, doing small surfaces at the same time
After cleaning you must get rid of the white deposit that stay on the surface film fuser.
Isopropyl alcohol won't ruin the fim fuser but don't use it on the pressure roller, the FTPE film is too thin to support such a treatment.
The first picture is before cleaning, the second one after.
After this pretty good result (in my opinion) I'll try to do it on other fuser roller
