You have to reset the counter. Stop a print or copy job with the paper still in the unit and see where the line comes from, ie fuser transfer etc.

I get a black line about 3mm from the right hand edge and faint specks which look like they have been created by a wheels but are much more concentrated on the lower left hand side. Do I change the fuser...

Vertical lines and evenly spaced marks are typically caused by damaged drum. The drums are usually in the toner cartridges. If you think its coming from a a roller or wheel you should be able to just clean off the roller/wheel. The fuser is simply what melts the toner into the paper so I doubt that is your issue.
Try cleaning the rollers and wheels. If that doesnt help replace the drum/cartridge if they are combined.

Black lines on paper

The problem is either with your black toner cartridge or the drum. Try changing the black cartridge first, and if this doesnt work then you will need a new drum

Black smudge marks along left side edge of paper.

Its probably a defective toner. If the film on the toner drum is scratched it can cause toner to stick to the drum everytime it spins causing the constant marks.

Colour lines across the page

Hey Paul, Can you post a scan of the printed paper? It may help diagnose your problem. The most common cause of lines accross the page is either the PhotoConductor Unit or the 2ND BTR Assy.
