1/8 in. black line left side portrait on hpclj 3525n; what is causing this?

I am experiencing a 1/8 inch black line about 2 inches in from the left side of a portrait printed page. Can you tell me what might be causing this?

Hi dtrev,
This could be caused by several things in the printer. The first thing to check is the black toner cartridge.
I am an HP employee.

    I have pages 09 version 4.1... It is a small aggravation.. The left 3 or 4 characters on the return address would not print until I realized that by clicking on
    " View " & " Show Lay-Out " that it was out side the printable range ...

    It seems to be a Pages template  " Print range " issue..  Both the Epson and the HP printers were doing it and it was today that I realized why..  !!
    When I move it to where it will print there is large gap on the left margin of the return address..  Just wondering if anyone else knew about this.. ? My Pages is ' 09 ' version 4.1...

    Have you tried this?
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Have a new macbook pro and on the display there are 2 lines, one blue and one green on the left side.  Does anyone know what the problem is.  Happened after 2 weeks.

    I just purchased a new macbook pro.  Have had it about 2 weeks.  Last night there were 2 thin lines that are on the left side of the desktop, 1 green and 1 blue from top to bottom.  This happened after I added a printer.  Anyone know what this is.  Fearing that is a flaw in the screen.

    Sounds like a hardware problem.  You'll need to contact Apple ASAP.  Since it's so new, hopefully they will just replace it rather than making you go through the repair process, but that's up to them.

  • Black bar left side when importing

    When importing Quicktime HDV 1080i60 video into an HD project, I wind up with a black bar on the left side of the movie. I've tried every combination of HD format and preference setting. Can anyone explain what I'm doing wrong?

    For everyone who is interested, I tried some more things:
    I had a long phone call today with Apple Support (when upgrading to Mountain Lion you get 90 days phone support again) and we did similar things.
    First: change the settings - didnt work
    Second: Option+Cmd+P+R to reset  PRAM - didnt work either
    Third: create a new partition, clean install mountain lion and see if the problem still exists. At the beginning it worked but after once changing the resolution it cant get back to the correct displaying anymore. Same problem also.
    They said that then it is probably the fact that the driver of the display doesnt work with ML - I should contact Acer now.
    Or I should get back to the technical helpdesk again.
    Will try both...
    But it means that it is a software issue caused by ML.
    Keep on trying...

  • How can I turn off related search window, it keeps popping up on the left side of my screen when I refresh? This is very annoying

    This is very annoying, whenever I refresh a site, a window pops up on the left side of my screen of related searches, I want to turn this OFF

    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
    Thank you.

  • My iPhone 3GS has dead spots on the left side of the screen, does anyone know how this problem has started or how I can fix this?

    Over the past couple of months, my iPhone 3GS has had dead spots on the left side of the screen, preventing me from using the r, d and x keys, the number 4 and the semi colon and comma keys. Does anybody have any ideas on why this has happened or any ideas that I'll be able to fix this problem?
    Just a note; I can't put my phone to sleep or turn off as my lock button isn't working, so I'm using the AssistiveTouch settings.
    Thanks.

    This has no impact on the ability to purchase a new iPhone... it simply means that the newer one will not be at a fully subsidized price.
    You could always take it to Apple and do an Out of Warranty exchange (I'm assuming the device is out of warranty) for $149 US.

  • My macbook pro is just over 3 years old now and off and on during this time the screen will just go all black.  Lately this blackout is lasting longer and I was wondering what is causing this.  I am afraid that this will not come back on in the future.

    My MacBook pro is just over 3 years old now and the screen has totally blacked out for a few seconds at a time.  It will come back on in a few seconds with the exception this past month it has stayed black for a longer period of time like one minute.  It scares me to think that one of these times it won't come back on.  I have noticed it happens more often when I am using just the battery power.  Does anyone have any idea what causes this?  just to mention my battery was not low when this happens.

    jmckl,
    if your MacBook Pro is a 15-inch Mid 2010 model (“MacBookPro6,2”), then it might be exhibiting the defect that is documented on this Apple Support page. If your black screen is due to this defect, then that page states that Apple will service this problem on this specific model of MacBook Pro gratis, for three years from the date of purchase. However, some commenters here have noted that sometimes the servicing is done gratis without having proof of the date of purchase. If you have an Apple Store near you, you might consider bringing your MacBook Pro there to have them check for the presence of this defect.
    It is only the 15-inch Mid 2010 model that has this problem; no other model suffers from it.

  • My iPad is dim on one side. What would cause this?

    What may cause uneven screen brightness on iPad 3? I have noticed this briefly on my new iPad right out of the box. It didn't remain after I powered down and restarted. It occurred on the right side with the home button down.

    Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

  • I've created a Photoshop PDF and all the text is editbale after passing through indesign to add crop marks and bleeds - one line now isn't editable, what's causing this

    I've created a Photoshop PDF and all the text is editable in the resulting PDF.
    The PDF created by Photoshop is completely editable, all text! I put it through indesign so I could add crop marks and reduce the pdf file size and now all the text is editable except one line!
    I've not used any faux styles or effects...what could be causing this?
    Thanks!
