Extra line running through the screen on my Officejet 6500 printer

I just noticed a second horizontal line running through the screen on my Officejet 6500 printer screen (right through where the ink levels show up.)  The screen resembles graph paper.  What causes this?  Is there something wrong with the machine?  Can something be done to correct it?

Hi there,
A full factory reset may not be required. Try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03275041&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on.
Best of Luck!

  • Ipad had colored lines running through the screen

    My ipad first generation which i love now has colored lines running through the screen.  Can it be fixed?

    Howdy diana,
    It sounds like your iPad has mulitcolored lines all over it. I would recommend a few things here to help isolate the issue to software or hardware. Try restarting the phone with this article:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, I would next try reseting the device with the same article:
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    If the issue is not resolved, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it as a new device to see if the lines are still there. If not then restore your backup and verify they are still gone.

    If the lines are there even when setup as a new device, your iPad may need service:

  • 40 inch Samsung LCD White Horizontal lines running up the screen constantly

    My brand new Samsung 40 inch tv (purchased in mid-December) has white horizontal lines running up the screen constantly.  From what I heard, the electricity in my house my not be grounded, but no other tv in my house does this, so I doubt this is the case.  Has anybody else had this issue and is it too late to return the tv?  Thanks.

    Does it do it on other sources like a DVD?  If so you may have a TV problem. Have you tried to do a factory reset or restore? Have you tried plugging it into an outlet in a different part of the house? As a last resort have you tried taking it back to the store and see if it works there? Also have you tried a filter on the AC plud in? Just some suggestions to try and help you out.

  • Thin black line running down the screen

    Just did latest update and noticed on the reboot a thin black line running down the left hand side of the screen 8cm in apex.
    Any one else got an issue or fixed the issue?

    Sounds like a problem with the display. Contact your local Apple Store or AASP and make an appointment to have the display looked at. > Apple - Support - iMac - Service FAQ

  • Equium M40X: red lines running across the screen

    I seem to be getting red lines running across my screen( from top to bottom) as i move my mouse.any idea whats wrong. ie is it the screen or something else.
    i however connected it to a monitor and got the same problem so am presuming my screen fine.
    maybe my graphic.and if so anybody with a solution or will i just have to dismantle it..
    thanks

    Does this happen as Windows boots up or during the desktop??
    It sounds like you graphics processor is defected to be honest I would only expect this problem to occur with LCD screens but as you said it happens using the external monitor.
    Try changing your display modes to see if this has made any difference.

  • My friends iPhone 6 Plus has lines going through the screen. Does anyone else have this problem?

    Help? There are white lines going through the right side of screen. I reset the phone and restored it, I don't think its software.

    is it still a hardware issue ?
    I am seeing from last 2-3 days or i realized in last 2-3 days but am keeping seeing every 1-2 hrs apart the lines keep coming and phone also acting especially in the areas of touch response.  I am on latest 8.1.3 version .
    At least i know that i am not alone.

  • Laptop suddenly had horizontal lines running across the screen

    Suddeenly horizontal lines appreared across the screen .
    I have shut down and started up the computer numerous times and it does not go away .
    It also affects the graphics and text on the screen .
    If I cannot fix should I have the computer cleaned and set back to factory standard and how do i do that /
    Thanks

    2 possibilities:
    1. The video chip (motherboard) has gone bad; or,
    2. Just the screen has gone bad.
    Connect the computer to an external monitor and see if the lines appear on it. If so, it is #1.
    It is doubtful that restoring the laptop to factory specs will have any effect on the isue either way but if you want to do that you can tap F11 as you power up to enter factory reset.

  • My ipod has two thin black lines running across the screen. What causes this, and is there a fix?

    Suddenly, my Classic ipod got two narrow, black lines runnings horizontally across the screen.  Will thes eventually go away or is the screen damaged?
    Thanks!

    You can work through the remaining five 5 R's of troubleshooting.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
    Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's LCD display, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
    Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity.  A third party service will actually replace the damage part for a little less.  Google "iPod screen repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.

  • Lines Running Through The Message I Posted

    I submitted a message in one of the forums and when it posted, half of it had lines drawn through it. What caused that?

    From your other post I find this in the page source code:
    "Q: "I can find no option to go to the next email or previous email when I have finished reading an email. Are there no "Next" or "Previous" buttons for that?"
    A: Not that I know of. However, you can view the messages in the main Mail window and you can use your mouse to move the cursor to the next email or to the previous one. If you are wondering how to view them in the main window, (assuming you don't at present), look to the bottom of it and you see a bar with a tiny little dimple in the middle, double click it. If you don't see it, you may have to move all the way down on the page, as the bar may be further on the page than you are looking. Note: This question was answered by "gumsie" in the forum "Apple.com > Support > Discussions > Using iPhone > Mail, Contacts and Calendar", which helped to answer a second question, which was "Email Opens Next Email Upon Delete?". Answer: View your messages in the main Mail window and when you hit "Delete", the next email will automatically appear and will be opened."
    You must have entered some symbol (maybe a bracket) that added the "strike" property.

  • Horizontal line going through the screen on retina display

    The line is from right to left as pictured. It only shows up on certain colors, but it gets very annoying with any movie playing. On dark blue and burgundy  backgrounds the line is a black color. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you

    When I first saw that line on my original 20" iMac I thought it was another artifact of the screen controller on that machine that had a lot of problems (need to get it fixed now that I have my PB to fill in. However, I then saw the same line on my wife's 12" PB and now on my new 15". If you are seeing the same as I am (faint grey line dead center of the menu bar) then I think it is just part of the 3D effect in OSX.

  • I have a line that runs through the screen of my ipad. How do I get rid of it?

    I have a straight line that rund horizontally across my screen. Is this a reading line and
    how can I get rid of it?

    May be a LED problem. Before you bring it to Apple, try a reset.
    Try a reset. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider.
