The "standard" folklore on the old Epson inkjet listserve group was: Windex
window cleaning solution.  If you live in an area that doesn't have that
brand, look for an ammoniated window cleaning spray.

If you search the web, you should find several sites detailing how to use
it.  Some people get results in minutes; others reported soaking over
night. As usual, ymmv.

I used it once on my Epson with good results; Xerox machines may be a
completely different story...
