Does anyone know the best way to clean the guide rollers on a printer like an Epson XP-3205 please?

There's some black residue on the roller nearest the print head that I'd like to clean but I'm not completely sure on the best tools and proces to use, so I'd appreciate some guidance from fellow MSErs.
