Apply rubbing alcohol to white rag or paper towels and wipe interior of dryer drum. Change rag or paper towels as needed until no more ink comes off dryer drum. Run a couple of old towels full cycle to assure that no ink comes off on laundry. Any residual staining of dryer drum will not interfere with operation of dryer. Stains on laundry that have been through dryer will be challenging to remove. Stains can be flushed with rubbing alcohol and pretreated with heavy duty liquid laundry detergent and left to set. Wash in hot water, detergent, and all-fabric bleach. Repeat as needed.
