HP LaserJet 3330 shows horizontal lines exactly every 1.5" when printing a completely white page

HP LaserJet 3330 shows seven or eight  about 3.5" long cloudy horizontal lines spaced exactly every 1.5" even when printing a completely white page. This occurs also when copying and faxing. 
There are also 2 very thin vertical lines running down the whole page approx. in the middle. They are exactly 1" apart.
However, a scan of a white page viewed on my computer (not printed) is completely clean.
Windows 7. No changes or upgrades.
This question was solved.

Propbably the toner cartridge if they are 1.48" apart it could be the developing cylinder or the charging roller that are both in the toner cartridge. So a good guess if you replace the toner cartridge, the problem will go away. The vertical lines could also be part of this issue.

  • My problem using iPhoto Having the horizontal lines going through the  photo when printing of a website

    My problem is using the I Photo and printing a picture with horizontal lines going through it

    Your topic title and topic content are a bit confusing?  Are you printing a website page? That would be thru Safari or other browser. 
    Or is a photo from a website?  If so how was it imported into iPhoto?
    Also what system and iPhoto version are your running?
    Does the photo print correctly from Preview or other application?
    What's the pixel dimensions of the image?
    How much free space do you have on your boot drive?

  • HT4641 after modifying a document in Pages I found that there are horizontal lines across every line break when opened and saved it in DropBox.  Does anyone know why?

    after modifying a document in Pages ON MY IPAD AIR I found that there are horizontal lines across every line break when opened and saved it in DropBox.  Does anyone know why?

    Thanks a lot for your swift response. And sorry if it was a bit too hectic to go through my detailed query (which I did because it was misunderstood when I asked previously). As I've mentioned above, I was informed that updating to 5.0.1 would '''require''' me to '''delete''' the current version and then install the new one. And doing so will involve losing all my bookmarks. I guess I should have been more specific and detailed there. By losing, I didn't mean losing them forever. I'm aware that they're secured in some place and deleting and installing the software doesn't harm its existence. What I meant that if I install the new version, I'd have to delete the old one. And after installing the new version, I'd have to transfer them (bookmarks) back from wherever they are. Get it? When it updated from 3.6.9 to 3.6.13, and from 3.6.13 to 3.6.18, I didn't need to follow that process. They were already present on their own.
    BTW, I'm having no problems with 3.6.18 but after learning about the existence of version 5.0.1, I'm a bit too eager to lay my hands over it.
    Thanks for your help; hope this wasn't extremely long.

    Hi Guys, my iphone 4 showing bad retina display and showing horizontal lines? What could be the problem???

    Could be that your screen is damaged or dying.  Only way to know is to bring the phone to Apple for evaluation.

  • My Safari is showing horizontal lines once in a while

    I have a 15" MacBook Pro that's just over a year old. I started seeing horizontal lines in my safari window for a couple of months now. I have attached a screenshot below. Can anyone tell me what is causing this to happen? At first, I was seeing the very top of my Safari window flickering with thin colored lines. Now I am seeing what's attached below, probably once a day.
    I want to know if something is wrong with my graphics card (which I don't think it is because it's only happening in Safari) or if something is wrong with my Safari.
    Thanks!

    Only happens in Safari ... I would try these steps:
    go to Safari (in the menu bar), and select Reset Safari...
    next, Safari / Preferences / Extensions and turn off the extensions.

  • Photoshop cc photographs show subtle lines of variation in brightness across the width of the page.

    I have tried this on 2 differernt Brother MFC 9970CDW printers, one of which is brand new.  I have tried all the options in the printer dialog both in photoshop and the printer.  I can print other photographs in inDesign and other products perefectly on the same printers.  However, photos process in photoschop cc have the same problems even if place in indesign and printed from there.

    Any chance you could post one of the photos that's causing this issue?
    Are you using 8 bits/channel?  Do you have Dithering disabled?
    Notwithstanding what Chris has said, it may be that you've introduced posterization into your document by the way you've processed it.  Perhaps it's just not as visible on your screen as in print.  But without seeing what you are seeing we can't judge.

  • Missing Left line on all the invoices when printing from APPS

    Hi Guys,
    I need help here as i am learning XML. I customized one of my invoices RTF template and looks fine. When i generate the Invoice output from Apps through concurrent manager I am getting output with missing left line. When i tried to print from View Output its printing fine.
    Is anyone came across this? Please let me know if anybody has solution.
    Thanks in Advance,

    When you hit Print, is the dialog that comes up really small? If so, there's a triangle you can hit to the right of the Printer menu in the dialog that'll expand it to full size. This was something Apple added in 10.5 to simplify printing, but it's caused a lot of confusion.
    If that's not it, are any of the menu items in the middle menu (the one that starts out saying "Layout") crossed out? If so, you're probably running in 64 bit mode and the printer driver probably does not work in 64 bit. If you're using the latest driver, then try launching Lightroom in 32 bit mode (in the Finder, do Get Info on the application and check Open in 32 Bit Mode).
    If neither of those work, let me know.

  • Need to show leading zeros in the number field when printed from RDF

    We have a requirement to show leading zeros in the rdf output.
    We cannot use a format mask to achieve the same as the length of the field is not fixed.
    for ex if we have 0.68 then the same is printed in RDF as .68
    we cannot use a format mask as the length of the field is not fixed.
    we need to
    Kindly suggest if any solution exists for the same.

    the numbers after the decima can be anything..
    it can range between 2 to 10 or more...
    as told by you if we put the format as to_char(.68,'90.99') it shall give 0.68 but what for numbers like0.678,0.4567,0.765433 it will display only 2 digits after the decimal...
    The requirement is to dispaly the number as it is ,only the zeroes before the decimal should stay intact..
    we are not able to achieve this in rdf output..
    if it is
    0.678 then 0.678 shld be dispalyed
    0.4567 then 0.4567
    0.765433 then 0.765433
    one format mask shld wrk for all the above..
    we would not be changing the format mask for each number....

  • Deskjet 5525 printing random characters, one line per page when printing both sides of page

    Hi. I have a deskjet 5525 wireless all in one printer. 
    I have installed all of the necessary hardware and have updated it. We have two computers running windows 7, 64 bit. I have not been able to update the firmware on the printer because the HP Device Updater program that does it cannot communicate with the printer via usb cable or wireless on two different computers I have tried.
    When trying to print two sided documents, it will print ok for about two pages, but then, it will start printing on line per page of random characters, blurred lines of text, gargabe basically.
    This is the second printer as the vendor replace the first one with the same problem. You would say, oh a software problem, but I have reinstalled the HP Deskjet 5520 series SW a couple of times, reinstalled the printer, but the problem continues. 
    An old HP deskjet 3845 worked for us pretty well on the same computers.
    Please help.

    Hi Onemangosta,
    I would like to help with the garbled text you are experiencing. I have found a great document for you to use and I can also help you with the firmware update.
    Troubleshoot text that might be gibberish, nonsense, or look garbled or scrambled
    In order to update the firmware on your printer ensure the printer is on the wireless network and touch the Web Services icon (this icon is the 1st of the 4 that run across the top of the front panel - looks like 2 little cell phones). Scroll through the Web Services menu, find and select Product Updates, select Check for Product Updates.
    If the printer is already up to date the front panel will say so, if it is not, the download and install will begin. It is possible you were unable to do the update form the computer because the printer does not need an update. The HP Device Updater will only see a printer that requires the update.
    Hope this helps.

  • Horizontal line - Running out of options.

    Hi guys. I can hope someone can help
    I have a LaserJet 100 MFP M175NW printer that is around 2 years old. I am getting 1 horizontal faded line right through every page I print, black, or colour. It is always in the same position
    I have the exact same printer which is in perfect working order so I have tried the following
    1: Used a new photoconductor I know works
    2: Ran a clean cycle (10 times) on the cartridges
    3: Installed 4 new cartridges, from the printer I know prints perfect
    I'm not sure what else it could be? I am happy to get my hands dirty if there is something else I can try. I am thinking it must be some sort of dust/residue build up somewhere but  I am not sure where or what to clean.
    Look forward to your help
    Picture attached showing the line I have referred to.

    Hi @JSM87 ,
    I see that you are getting a horizontal line in the same area when printing in color or black. I would be happy to help you.
    Since you have already tried known good toners and a imaging drum, most likely it is the fuser or another hardware issue.

  • Smart form footer issue in 2nd page - Horizontal line is not displayed

    Dear Experts,
    I am working on a smartform. Which has a table (Header, Main area, Footer), When there are more records and footer alone is printed in the 2nd page, i am not getting the first horizontal line for the footer and it does not look like a table in second page.
    My smartform table exactly looks like this when printed in a single page.
    |_________|______________|_________________|____________|________________|__________|  - Header
    |_________|______________|_________________|____________|________________|__________|  - Main Area
    |_______________________________________________________|___________________________|  - Footer
    When the footer alone is printed in second page, i want to print as
    |_____________________________________________________|__________________________|  - Footer
    But its printed as
    |_____________________________________________________|__________________________|  - Footer
    When the item records are printed in multiple pages, i will have header and item records in every page. The problem comes only when the footer alone gets printed in separate page.
    Please suggest me how to fix this issue. Thanks in advance.
    Rajesh.

    hi rajesh..
    check the line type for that footer. It's getting displayed properly on multiple pages because the lower line of other rows is getting overlapped on the upper one of footer. This is why you dont recognize it.
    On single page there arent any other rows. So it shows a blank.
    So as samreen said make the top line of that line type bold.
    Regards,
    Sumit.
