We have tried using furniture polish and orange oil furniture cleaner but the prints remain.

Hi John. The only thing I can think of is rubbing the entire piece down with mineral spirits. I would test a small area first. Mineral spirits is good for cleaning wood and bringing it back to life. Here is a link with more information. I wish you luck!https://www.doityourself.com/stry/how-to-use-mineral-spirits
Soapy water and soft nail brush...........
Have you tried Murphy's OIl Soap and a Magic Eraser?
Restore-A-Finish will take it right off. Available at hard ware stores in colors for all woods. Rub on with a soft cloth in direction of the grain. Wear gloves it will stain your hands.
Bucket of warm water, 1/2 c vinegar, 1/2 c Olive oil (must be Olive oil), wipe cupboard down, dry with clean towel. Best wood cleaner I have used for years, good luck!
Murphy's oil soap works on all my oak and pine furniture
