Depends. From my PoV. I've done thorough cleanings of LaserJet 4, 4+ and 5, including adding a Zener diode for lessening standby noise.

But I digress. :-)

Anyway. I was shocked beyond belief that to reach the rolls pulling the paper out of the cassette, I apparently needed to disassemble the complete printer. Needed one room's floor to orderly place the stuff coming out of this thing.

Or is that what you call "messy"? :-)
