Default Re-commissioning an old laser printer - toner tips ?

Not been used for more than 10, years and been stored in a UK garage.
Although SMPS , powered up slowly via variac and the printer works fine. But
damp must have got to the toner. It clings to the opc giving a dusty
background rather than white. Removable opc and toner cartridge. Other than
removing the bung from the toner hopper area and placing in a sealed bag
with activated silica gel for a few weeks which I've done, then clean opc
and adjascent roller , any other tips?
