Should work fine...

Have you tried Wallyworld?

(ahem - that would be Wal-mart... but you should be able to find it at
Target, K-fart or any other nationwide-type store chain - check the
automotive section...) Red can - looks like 1930's grafix they've never
changed, but you can (finally) now get it in a plastic bottle...

BTW: From what I've heard, Marvel Mystery Oil is just ATF without the added
extras... the base oil is the same stuff. However, personally I wouldn't
use ATF for your printer needs as some of those additives can do weird
things to rubber...

Also BTW: the person who taught me that trick is "UberTechnoid"'s brother,
who currently works for me...

HTH,
