The Scanner now has a pink line down the page - when I save a scan it has the pink line! Can this be fixed easily or should I buy a new All-In-One? I really like the HP 7410 -great until now.

SOLUTION TWO: Clean the product and make a blank copy
If the scanner glass or the white underside of the lid has debris, this can slow performance and affect copy
and scan quality. To resolve this issue, clean the All-in-One.
Before you begin, gather the following materials:
*Several clean, soft, lint-free cloths
*Mild glass cleaner
1. Press the Power button ( ) to turn off the product, and disconnect the power cord from the product.
2. Open the scanner lid.
3. Spray a clean, soft, lint-free cloth with mild glass cleaner.
CAUTION:Do not spray the glass cleaner directly on the glass to avoid damaging the scanner.
4. Wipe the scanner glass and the white underside of the scanner lid with the dampened cloth.
5. Dry the scanner glass thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth, or chamois to prevent spotting, and then dry the white underside of the scanner lid.
NOTE:Do not use tissues that can leave fiber residue.
6. Clean and thoroughly dry the small strip of glass to the left of the scanner glass, and then clean and dry the white plastic strip on the left underside of the scanner lid.
7. Close the scanner lid.
8. Reconnect the power cord to the product, and press the Power button to turn on the product.
If the issue persists, please service the product.
