• disorder of the copy or scan, just the shows up as vertical black lines on the page

  I have a HP Envy 120 printer all-in-one.  It prints very well.  But when I saw something to copy, it's just all black vertical lines.  No light in the scan bar.  I had HP replace my printer with a new printer and the same thing happens.  Anyone have any ideas?  I have a laptop with Windows 7.  Have used the printer for 5 or 6 months, but use only a few times a month, so did not notice a problem immediately the Copier.  Spent 4 hours on the phone with technical support who said first the version of the firmware to put up-to-date, but he was able to complete correctly.  He suggested that I had a surge in my wall connection, but that wouldn't make much sense given that I had just plugged the new printer to try and nothing else on this decision was having problems...

  Hi teropt. Reset of the printer and plug it directly into a wall outlet are a very important step to do if you do not have.

• HP Envy 5532 Printing green lines across the page when scanning in color

  Hi, I'm Green striped wallpaper is the best way to describe it, when I scan a document color the entire page has this striped background green and the image being analyzed. The printer is around the age of 18 months.

  I tried all the diagnostic tools that are available through the printer, nothing seems to clear it.

  Any suggestions?

  Hey @thelentons,

  Welcome to the HP forums! I hope you enjoy your stay here.

  I understand that your e-all-in-one printer of 5532 Envy is scanning with green lines. I can help you with that.

  To start, make sure that the printer is plugged directly into a wall outlet , not a surge protector. Once it's done remove any paper flat from the printer and turn the printer off, then on again. Finally we will try to make a copy. If the copy has lines so you have a hardware problem. If you are able to make a copy without lines so you can have a software problem.

  If you have a hardware problem

  While the printer is turned on remove the cable at the back of the printer for a minute, turn on the printer and try to make a copy.

  If the copy always has lines in it then we will make a factory reset the printer. I'll send you some pointers on how to do so shortly in a private message.

  If after the reset you still have lines in print then the printer needs to be replaced. You can contact HP support by clicking here and filling out the form below.

  If you have a software problem

  I can provide you with more information, but I need to know what operating system is on your computer. If you are not sure what your operating system is you can click here to find. Please let me know what you use, and I'll be better able to help you.

  I hope this solves your problem of copy and wish you a nice day!

• CP1525 red lines across the page

  I have red horizontal stripes on each page, but the first that I print.  They are a little less than 1/2 inch apart.  Performed all the elements on the hp troubleshooting page and can't seem to find anything.  Thank you.

  Hi Maleryn,

  Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!

  I understand that you get a red horizontal line when printing.

  I'll be happy to help you.

  I have provided a document to solve problems of quality Print.

  Maybe it's that you have already followed.

  You have a different magenta toner to try to see if the toner or printer hardware problem?

  Please provide the results of the paper.

  When you print the Diagnostics page do you have a red horizontal line?

  Did you run the clean up and calibrate the printer?

  Are you using genuine HP Toners?

  What kind of paper do you use?

  Thanks for posting on the HP Forums.
  Have a great day!

• M3035: LaserJet M3035 Intermittent black lines on any Page, no question of Scanner Laser

  Currently of problems with two of these Multifunction products.

  Machine 1 # started a week ago and a half, intermittent lines that seem to be a problem of HVPS, (power supply high voltage).  Two lines on the page between the longitudinal edges, lines appear blurry.

  There are three printers M3035 in this room, machine #2 is mainly used for file scanning and until about 2 weeks ago was not used for printing.

  When #1 didn't #2 toner cartridge was traded in #1, (and #1 cartridge # 2), number one has always had the same problem so I ordered a HVPS.

  The next day, I was out and another Tech looked #1 and decided that it needed a transfer roller and also decided to Exchange #1 to #3, given that the person using #1 was printing which were to be made where they are not accessible to everyone.

  A few pages of test were performed on #3 and they looked good, so no. 3 has been moved into the Office next to #1.

  When #3 was turned on and tested, it was printed lines across the page!

  Since #3 is running on the power of the cable #1 cable has been replaced with a new cable.  The output has been verified for correct wiring, (tester used wiring available at Home Depot, etc.) and I took out my meter and the good test line and remained strong throughout testing printing.

  An extension has been completed past another outlet to verify that the problem was not gout and #3 failed again.

  #1 has been moved to the office #3 has and has been tested, he had problems, but they were slightly different, there was a grey shading across the entire page, because it was new I swapped the toner with #2 (this replace the original toner # 1) and #1 worked well, but was so #2.

  At this point, it was late on a Friday so that the print was made in another room and the problem put off until Monday.

  (will continue in another post)

  This printer has the same engine as the P3005 and there is a question that has been pretty common on this printer and it's the block of ground on the left side.  There is a mech that when you open the toner door separates a spring load piece since the acutal post that goes against the drum unit on this side of the Earth.  When you install the toner and close the door mechs two-piece flat against them and provide the grounding.  You will see I think that red ground wire that attaches from the bottom.  Most of the time the solution is very easy.  I just take a big piece of cardboard and paste it between the 2 black pieces of the MAN.  It remains in place because of the spring mech that keeps the two pieces together.  Once done, who takes care of the issue.  The lines that you get at least in my experience are caused by a lack of firm ground.  If you can recreate the lines still just have side trim left and just press the black mech and make a test and I do not know that the lines will be gone.  I repaired probably at least a couple of dozen of those printers who had this problem using the same procedure.  You can see the other two printers as it is a very common problem.  According to me, that the parties are called upon to lever earthing contact.  Chances are that supply high voltage was good.

• Black line through all pages HP Officejet 8500 A909a

  We've had this printer for some time at the office and not even a week ago, he started printing with a black line across all pages. Normally, that would be a problem with the head of the cleaner. FAKE! He is not the head of the cleaner. It will print the computer without the black line, and when something is printed glass monitor it won't be a black line in my documents. The only time where it appears is when I print copies of the Lac. It also occurs when we fax some of our documents to some of our major customers and businesses.

  We NEED this to work. What could be the problem? It must be well fixed as SOON AS POSSIBLE! It is urgent that I get a response on what I can do for this printer. Faxes should be sent each day of our office. I have just files accumulate on my desk. Help!

  Thank you!

  There is a small section (about 1 "wide) of glass which is used for the ADF to scan.  It's just to the left of the main window, see this post for more details.  A stain on the glass turns into a line, as the paper is fed through the document feeder.  This section of cleaning should solve the problem.

• Solid black line on the screen of the HP Tablet

  I just got this HP 7 5709 flow. So far so good except there is a horizontal black line across the screen. I first thought, this is the screen protector, but now I'm starting to think that it is in the screen itself. Is - is this known? Attached to the image here. Thank you

  all kinds of lines on the screen that persist all the time are defective LCD screens and will need a replacement.

• Incoming Fax page, left thick black line down the side edge

  Hello

  I recently bought a HP Photosmart 7520 printer and had to return because of a wrong switch ON / OFF the printer.  So I returned and bought another. This second printer works perfectly so far!  However, when I recieive a fax, the page has a very thick Black Line crosses the length (less than an inch from top and down) on the left edge. It almost seems to be a template for a fax page?  The first printer (a returned) did not do that, but it does not appear on the second printer.  In addition, the original page fax I sent to my friend and he said, that it doesn't have a thick black line on the fax page, he gets... and then he sent me along a return fax with this black line appears.

  Comment of thoughts,

  Hello

  For more than a week since my last post. And I also had the printer connected to an outlet of power strip surge protector (never needed to connect directly to a wall, which I would have if I had a problem).  The problem has been resolved by replacing the large black ink cartridge, which was not printing text.

  In addition, earlier when I check the ink level, he showed the graphics still about 1/4 rest in the cartridge. I had also previously clicked on tell me when the ink level is low. None of this happened?  So now I have to watch closely what is printing a page of text clean/good.

  So for now, the printer is good to go and I hope not to have more problems... thank you for your help!

• Thick vertical black line on the entire length of the page

  I have a HP LaserJet M1530 MFP Series PCL 6.  When I print normally there is no mistake in the image, but when I make a copy I have a thick vertical black line on the entire length of the page. The black line is about 2 inches from the left edge of the page. The problem is older than the current drum cartridge which was just replaced a couple of months. Never, the problem occurs with a normal printing, copy only and occurs with every copy without exception. Does anyone have any ideas/suggestions?

  Hello somedudeand welcome to the Forums of HP.

  I'm sorry, but to get your question more exposure I suggest posting in the trade forums since it is a commercial product. You can do so at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/ .

• Black line on the left side of the page

  I have a HP Laserjet 1018. The toner is old, there are about 3,000 pages.

  These days, I saw a black line on the left side of the page. The rest of the page is fine - faded streak.

  I took the toner and it has shaken for a few seconds, from one side to the other, but who has no good.

  Any recommendations?

  
  HP LaserJet p1102w

  1018 manual says that when this happens, the old toner drum is scratched and insert a new. I did, and the line has dissappeared,

  OK, there was more Ink toner, left, but after 3, 000-plus pages, I can live with having to replace it.

• LaserJet M451dw: black line to the bottom of the page

  When I print a document, a continuous black line appears in the middle of the pages. The first 2 pages are normally well, but the rest of the pages have the black line.  I cleaned the printheads etc.  I hesitate to change the ink because there is more than half a cartridge left in all colors.

  It sounds like a faulty black toner cartridge.

  After printing open access toner and remove the cartridge and look at the drum and if there is a black line on the drum, then it would prove.

  If you have half left toner cartridge is still in warranty and you may be able to get it replaced.

• Why does my HP laserjet 1022 produced a black line on the right side of the page?

  Why does my HP laserjet 1022 produced a black line on the right side of the page? This occurs by using Word 2003, Photoshop, Acrobat etc. I don't get this with my Epson printer. My printer drivers are all to date. OS = Windows 7.

  Hello dqmcg

  Have you checked programs and OS - seemed to be OK, so did a new install of the printer. I have seems to now work OK - IE the files previously printed with lines now don't (only verified although some).

  I think that I was naïve in beliving Windows when he says that the printer and the driver were OK, and when I did a re-driver installation, Windows just used the file I already had. Also the "print test page" printer properties was always OK. Must have been very slight damage to the driver who showed up only with certain types of files of a few (different) programs.

  Thank you very much for getting my brain to work and begin to think logically.
