What is the best way to remove ink stains from the inside of my electric dryer?

I left an ink pen in my pocket and it exploded inside the dryer. Now there are ink stains inside the dryer. How can I safely clean the ink stains?

Update:

I am concerned that using something flamable will ignite if I use the dryer again too soon.

    Try Amodex Ink Remover, it's designed to specifically remove ink on surfaces and fabrics. Sold at office and craft supply stores. Once your finished I think if you leave the dryer open for a while you allow any fumes to escape.

    Good Luck, ;-)

    I like Goo Gone too. Let it air out afterward. If you're really concerned, run for 1/2 hour on air only before using.
