Product: Example: laser Jet Pro M203-M206Pavilion 65XX
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have some marks on the copies which I suspect are coming from a hair on the drum.  It is possible to clean it and if so how.

 

Thank you

There are many videos on Youtube that describe the general image drum cleaning process:

While individual models and toner cartridges are different, the general process is always the same.  If you mess something up then swap out the cartridge with a new one.
