StyleWriter 2200 Pick-up Roller Cleaning Tool?

Anyone have any idea where I might be able to find a Color StyleWriter 2200 Pick-up Roller Cleaning Tool? (See pg 82ff in the Color StyleWriter 2200 Service Manual.)

MacBook Pro 17" 2.16GHz, Mac OS X (10.5.2), 2GB RAM, 160GB HD, SuperDrive

Thanks. Yes, according to the StyleWriter service manual, the tool was available from Apple until 1999; I have one, actually, and have used it numerous times, but don't want to send it away with my client to South America for the winter, so was wondering if I could find another for him.

I see a "Foam Swab" pictured in the manual (pg. 91); do you have any idea where such an item could be found?

When writing this, I do not have access to the manual in question. However, I think that a "foam bud" was part of either a CD-ROM drive or a floppy drive cleaning kit that could be bought in computer stores. Otherwise, you could possibly try a plain cotton bud moistened with a small amount of water (although it may be difficult to reach the "roller" from the outside).
