You get platen cleaner at office supply stores. It may be labeled Typewriter
Cleaner. The label should say it's safe for cleaning the platen, which is
usually rubber.

plat·en
1. The roller in a typewriter that serves as the backing for the paper
against which the type bars strike.
2. Computer Science. The roller in a printer against which the print head
strikes.
