Printer puts yellow wing marks on left edge of paper in groups of 4-5 approximately every 3-4" and about 1/2" in. Each sheet is spaced a little differently. I have removed the cartridge and cleaned off the black screen under it but the next time it prints it is right back on it.

1. Check with another cartridge.
2. Replace teflon sleeve if its available or replace fuser assembly.

Error 18 is a "Paper Edge Search Error".


1. Check document for damage and check it meets specs.
2. Check that Ribbon Cartridge is installed correctly.
3. Do "Form-Edge Sensor Service Check"
4. Do "Platen" adjustment.

Sensor Status Display:

1. Start Self-Test (press and hold Start 1 on panel: then turn on printer. Keep holding button until at least "00" is displayed.
2. Use a magnet to override cover closed/open sensor to the left of the Start1 button in the indent.
3. Press Reject Off button until "4" is displayed.
4. Press Start1 button to shift to next digit.
5. Press Reject Off to display "4"
6. Display should now read "44"
7. Press Start2 button. The LED display indicates sensor status'
8. You will see changes with inserting paper or removing paper.

FORM-EDGE SERVICE CHECK:
Perform sensor status display as stated above. The sensor is located on the print head carriage on the left side.

1. The upper right vertical segment of the left LED digit is assigned to the form-edge sensor for Command "44"
With no paper the LED segment is unlit.
2. Check the sensor by inserting paper. Move the print carrier to the right to access the sensor mounted on the print carrier.
If the LED segment becomes lit when you insert the paper, and becomes unlit when you remove the paper, sensor is OK.
3. If the sensor does not work, check that the sensor cable is connected correctly. If the cable is okay, replace the following one at a time:
a. Form Edge Sensor -46H2648
b. Form Edge Sensor Cable -46H2730
c. Main Card -
1.46H2632 - Serial Interface
2.46H2634 - Parallel Interface

PLATEN ADJUSTMENT:

hi there... this is what you need.

Loading Paper Follow these steps to load paper: Slide the edge guide to the left. Fan a stack of paper, then tap it on a flat surface to even the edges. Load the paper with the printable side up, against the right side of the sheet feeder. Then slide the left edge guide against the left edge of the paper, but not too tightly. Note: Leave enough space in front of the printer for the paper to be fully ejected. Always load paper into the sheet feeder short edge first, even when you are printing landscape-oriented pictures. Make sure the paper stack fits under the arrow mark inside the left edge guide.pls vote for me

your copier scaner mirror is dust over clean it then solve it

I have also had this problem which I solved by changing the photoconductors of the colours shown.
you can try this.I am not sure if that is the best solution but it solved my problem

Kodak printers support the following paper sizes: 3½ × 5 in. 4 × 6 in. 4 × 8 in. 4 × 12 in. 5 × 7 in. 6 × 9 in. 8 × 10 in. A4
Make sure that the grey coloured paper alignment is aligned properly to the edge of the paper.
turn your printer off and then turn it on again. put papers and align the paper alignment. try to print,your issue will be resolved.

yep simple problem ..
step 1 : close the machine (power off)
step 2 : push the button in the right side (up) of the macheine (means with your left hand)
step 3 : open the cover and pull the toner
step 4 : normally you shoul find a remaining piece of paper not correctly printed stuck inside
step 5 : take it off..power on ..there you go :)

dr prince..

how far apart are the spacings? inches or cm would be fine

First you should have installed the scanner in the computer using the cd comes with the scanner.

1. Confirm that the printer is powered on and press the <Open> button. (The paper output tray will open.)

3. Lift the document cover and set a document on the platen glass.
   
   
   MEMO:
   
   - Regardless of the document size, set it in the landscape orientation.
   
   - Place the copying face down on the platen glass.
   
   - Align the document with the alignment mark (shown as the arrow) on the lower right corner of the platen glass.
   
   
   Note: The machine cannot scan the area approximately 3 mm from the front and right edges of the platen glass.
   
   
   
   
   < 1 > Alignment Mark
