SOURCE: vertical dark/smudged line on right

See its a very common issue.the right side of the drum has moisture on it.remove the toner and drum and apply a hot air blower on it for some time also clean the printer internally.reinsert the toner and drum.
check by printing few pages the smudging on the right should go within 10 to 12 pages.
if the smudging doesnot go away then its time to replace the drum to solve the issue.

This will help. Thanks please keep updated.please do rate the solution positively .thank you for using fixya.

Most likely this is the drum. Take a damp cloth and clean the top of the drum roller. This should fix the problem. Good Luck.

SOURCE: 1/3 OF RIGHT SIDE OF PAGE DARK OR LINED TOP TO BOTTOM

Drum Cleaning Blade failure. Open up the top half of the machine as if you were removing a paper jam. Now look under the top half and about in the center from left to right. You should see a burgundy colored cylinder running from the front of the machine to the back. If you can see the toner streaks on the surface....expecially on the 1/3rd like on the copy then this will be proof that the drum cleaning blade is the cause. Simple repair for a tech that knows copier basics. A good estimated cost would be about $25.00 for the blade and whatever the going rate is for a service call in your area.

SOURCE: our copystar is creating a dark line on the right

There are a number of things that can cause this problem, below are a few things you can try.

1. Remove the process unit out as if you were going to remove a jam. There is a green piece of plastic used to clean the main charge unit. Slide it to the left then back to the right. Make sure it is seated all the way to the right in it's home position or it can cause black lines.

2. If you have a document feeder on the copier is the line only when using the document feeder?
- Determine if it is by making a copy from the glass.
- If it is only when making a copy from the document feeder then clean the small **** glass just to the left of the large glass. This glass is used only when making a copy from the document feeder.

3. If you wipe your hand across the copy and the toner wipes off then fixing unit should be replaced.

I hope this is helpful,
Shawn

EVERYTHING I PRINT HAS A DARK LINE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE PAPER. WHAT NEEDS TO BE CLEANED?

It's probably the transfer roller. Generally straight lines or repeated spots come from a dirty or damaged transfer roller.

I'm trying to copy from 8 1/2 x 11 paper to 8 1/2 x 11 paper. But the printer says the paper size detected is not supported. Job cancelled. It printed fine a couple of days ago and I've changed NOTHING!...

That error comes from the sensor on the right side of the carriage at the bottom. There's a light that shines down on the paper to determine size. Unplug your machine with the carriage in the middle and use a damp Q-tip to wipe up under the right hand side of the carriage. The Q-tip should come back dark blue and that error should go away.

Smudge mark 2-in wide down right side of each sheet of paper.

Generally speaking, any area that is darkened, is receiving less light. This can come from a lamp that is failing (similar to a fluorescent lamp used for lighting developing a dark end) or a mirror or optical lense that is contaminated with toner.
This may require some disassembly to diagnose and cure.
You may also want to visually check the fuser assembly (often accessible behind a door) to ensure there is no toner buildup on the affected side.

Black Lines running down the right side outside of the print area

It may be the fuser. Take it out and inspect the roller on it:

  1. Switch off the device, disconnect the mains plug and wait for 30 minutes before continuing.
  2. Ensure that the bypass tray is closed, or you will not be able to open the front cover.
  3. Open the front cover by pressing the release buttons as shown.
  4. Pull the front cover down towards you.
  5. Disconnect the green plug - squeeze the sides of the plug and pull.
  6. Push the left and right levers outward to unlock the unit.
  7. Pull the unit towards you as shown and lift it clear of the device.
  8. Check the roller for wear marks, If so replace it.
If I could be of further assistance, let me know. If this helps or solves the issue, please rate it.
Thanks, Joe
