My printer is just copying part of the page. Leaves out paragraphs of document. I would appreciate any help.

Some blank paragraphs may have spilled onto the last page. To view paragraph marks (paragraph mark: The nonprinting symbol that Microsoft Word inserts when you press ENTER to end a paragraph. The paragraph mark stores the formatting you apply to the paragraph.), click Show/Hide on the Standard toolbar (toolbar: A bar with buttons and options that you use to carry out commands. To display a toolbar, press ALT and then SHIFT+F10.). If you see paragraph marks without text on the last page of your document, delete them. Then click Print Preview on the Standard toolbar to view the document as it will be printed and verify that there is no longer a blank page at the end of your document

The part of the printer that scans the paper is probably dirty, hence the line only on things that have been scanned/copied.

Take a look at the floowing link which takes you step by step through the cleaning process.

Hope this helps.

You need to clean the scanner glass. Also known as the strip glass. It is a 1 inch wide strip of glass that runs from the front to the back. Your documents pass over this glass when they are scanned. Some of the wax crayon probably smeared off onto the glass and now when you scan the scanner sees these marks as stationary and thus records them as solid lines. Just look into the scanner section where your documents are fed in or depending on model, some are just to the left of the large original glass.
Good Luck and thank you for using Fixya.

It may need general cleaning OR have toner stuck to the fuser roller.

Be very careful of the ionizing wires... they are fragile in laser printers.

the problem is in the scanner, open it up and see if you can find any smudges, and clean any obstruction, any ink, liquid eraser residuals, can cause this part to appear as lines on your copied faxed image.
dont concentrate on the printer this is a scanner problem

Sometimes the originals hesitate using the document feeder, which can cause the problem you are describing. Do you get the same rsults if you lay the original on the glass?

I dont know what kind of copier you have but white vertical lines are virtually always caused by a dirty charge corona.There is usually a little plastic handle, blue, green or grey, that cleans the charge corona.pull it out ONCE, push it back in and try another copy.If you have an operators manual, it should have instructions for cleaning the charge corona.Good Luck, O'scope

Hi,

any further question let me know ok..

thanks,

I would type it all out but hp has a great little document - complete with pictures!! The issue is that there is something on the small strip of glass that is used for the feeder and needs to be cleaned.

hmm this has happened before
make sure it is sitting straight and cleaning it might help
