Even clean hands have oil on them. That oil will prevent the toner from applying corectly.
Just clean off any fingerprint with a dry cloth. It will be fine.
The toner actually spills onto that and is fused to the paper. I think that’s the drum. If you use it now you might see blotches in the printing from where skin oils get stuck to it.
