HP C5380 all-in-one printer: a thick black/gray line down the page when scanning.

1 HP Photosmart C5380 all-in-One Printer

2. Windows 7 64 bit

3. no error is, as usual but preview and print with a dark gray line / think through the page.

4. I got a new monitor.

How can I fix?  the optical reading area is clean, no dust or dirt present and it just started this without reason. The connections are good, I unplugged and plugged the cables of the computer and the printer and the problem is still there.

When I scan the document line is present and even when I print the line appears on the printed page is not my screen.

bbjae, it looks like there may be a residual electric charge accumulated in the unit.  When was the last time you did a Hard Reset on this unit?

Hard Reset:

* Unplug the unit while the printer is on

Disconnect the other end of the power cord from the wall jack directly

* Wait 30 seconds

* Plug power back in and make sure that the device is running

  • 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!

  • HP Photosmart 5520 All in One printer cancels an order of copy of the glass

    HP Photosmart 5520 All in One printer & HP Pavilion dm1 Notebook PC

    I put a document on the glass of the printer to make a copy. The command is recognized, but cancelled immediately. The first two attempts were given a bit of text/photo about 1 centimeter.

    I used the doctor scanning HP and installed my printer again, but that has not helped.

    Hi RodeDraak,

    Given that the problem occurs when you run a copy, I hope that the problem is the printer hardware not the software on the computer.

    You have the printer connected directly to a wall outlet or is this a surge protector or power bar? Even if you have used a surge protector/power bar this whole time and you feel that this is not the case, please connect to a wall outlet so that we can eliminate the source of energy as the primary cause.

  • [Re: C4240 all-in-One] Printer is installed, but am trying to re - install when

    Greetings-

    I'll have a more annoying problem. My C4240 is installed and works fine, except that whenever she is on (I'm not my gear on 24/7), the

    PC detects it as "new hardware" and 'new storage device' and passes by the automatic installation procedure. It is terribly boring, and I can't seem to stop. I do not understand why the installation attempt is performed when the printer is already up and running.

    I searched on this topic, but have not found anything yet, but will continue until I find something or someone responds here to research. Thank you to

    advance for your time.

    Data sheet:

    Windows XP Home Edition SP1

    HP C4240 all-in-one

    Wireless Internet

    Hope that is enough information.

    Thanks again-

  • 7520 all-in-One: 7520 all-in-One scanning now a straight line of the page when using the ADF

    A week ago I noticed that the analyses using the ADF put a black line about an inch from the right edge of the page.  This will not occur during the analysis of flat glass; only when you use the ADF.  I checked the glass and paper tray are clean and free of debris.  I wish that it there a way to display an image of what I'm talking about.

    The line is about the thickness of a vertical margin of Notepad and gray line.

    Someone at - it ideas other than buying another printer?

    BINGO!  That's all.  The glass was dirty.  Thank you very much.

  • HP Photosmart Premium Fax all-in-One Printer-C309a-new black ink cartridge will not print

    I just installed a new black cartridge (made by HP) what print quality became poor in the middle of a job.  He completed the job just fine, but when I tried to print later, the parts of the document that are in color/black and white will be printed.  Black is simply absent from the document.  the level of supply shows as thin and all the diagnostics indicate that there is no probem.  I have not received the error messages.  I tried to turn the printer power switch.  I tried to clean the print heads.  I tried to uninstall & reinstall the cartridge.  I do not have the black cartridges extra to try to see if that does not solve the problem, but as stated above, it worked at first.  I have just printed on ordinary regular white printer paper.  I tried all the relevant measures in the troubleshooting document of poor mailed print quality HP elsewhere on this page.  nothing worked!  another post mentioned someone resetting the printer, but did not say how it was done.  any ideas on a solution? Thank you!

    To reset the printer, follow these steps:

    While the unit is turned on, remove the power cord at the back of the printer. Wait at least 30 seconds, then plug the power cord to the back of the printer, then turn on the device. That will complement a power reset.

    Now, lack of black printing can be the result of a number of things. If it's only missing say when printing from Word, then print settings in Word are set to grayscale only (or something similar) which would exclude the black cartridge. If all programs, so it's either the main print in grayscale settings only the value or the cartridge/print head is blocked to the top/Sales. If this isn't the print settings, then create a report of print quality and follow the steps described in this document:
