How do you clean the dust off the sensor of a point-and-shoot camera?

For a point-and-shoot, you take/send it to a factory-authorized repair shop. With a digital SLR, you can typically choose a menu option like "sensor clean" which will flip the mirror up exposing the sensor for as long as you like, and you can blow the dust off with a bulb blower. Don't touch the sensor.

When i take a photo on my camera canon 500d there is a little blotch on the photo lens or censor. Any ideas how to fix it?
It could be due to a smear on the surface of the lens. Purchase a lens cleaning kit and follow the direction carefully to clean the smear. First, use the air blower to remove dirt and dust from the surface of the lens. This is an important first step because any disrt may scratch the lens when you try to wipe it clean. Then moist the lens tissue with cleaner solution and gently clean the lens in a rotating motion. Finally, use the soft cloth to dry the lens. It could also be due to dust on the sensor inside your camera. Activate the Integrated Cleaning System to shake the dust free. If this does not work, remove the lens, point the camera face down, then use the air blower to try to blow the dust off and out of the camera. If this also does not work, we recommend that you send your camera in to Canon to get the sensor professionally cleaned.

Why do you need to clean fax machines?
There are two main reasons to clean a fax machine: 1) dust accumulates in the machine (paper, especially printer paper has a lot of dust that it gives off). The dust makes it difficult for the rollers and mechanisms of the machine to move the paper through it. 2) the image sensor has become dirty - if the faxes are being sent with a long black line down them, it's usually because the optical sensor that scans the faxes in is dirty.
