printing normal from computer but copying/scanning faulty. When copying a double vertical line divides the text(top to bottom of the page) and some of the text on both sides of the dividing line also fades. setting up the page does not correct the fault. Please help.

By spacing, I assume you mean the margins at the centre.
The default margin settings are not the same for the right and left hand side of the page, so the printing on the reverse side is offset from the printing on the first side.
The right margin is always wider to allow for punch holes in file paper.
It is not the printer settings you need to adjust, it is the page layout of your word processing software.
Adjust the margin settings manually. In MS Office 2007:
Yes, most likely your application's margin settings are incorrect. Try printing a test page - NOT from the application. If this is Windows, go to printers in control panel, right-click on the subject printer, choose Properties, then click the Print Test Page button. You should get the standard Windows printer test page with the logo at the top and all the printer specifics below. If the test page is also cut off, look around in the HP-provided software for any margin and/or page size settings that are incorrect, such as A4 paper when it should really be Letter size.
Print a test page by holding down the UPPER LEVEL button for 2 seconds.
If this test page prints fine it may be a driver issue.
If the test page has the right side cut off as well then something is blocking the laser on that side of the printer. Most likely place is something around the drum cartridge area. If you are familiar with the printer and this cartridge you can try removing it and checking this area for a scrap of paper or something blocking the laser light from reaching the drum.
There is a setting on most printers to print a separator page at the end of print jobs. You can check the settings of your printer by going to the control panel and clicking on printers. Select your printer, right click and go into properties. The setting for this is usually located in the advanced settings. See if the printer is set up to print a separator page, if it is, uncheck it, press apply/ok button and close out printer window.
Could be as simply as the right print margin in the application you are using. Try printing a test page by right-clicking on the printer in Printers and Faxes in Control Panel and select Properties. If the test page prints ok then check the margins in the application you are using - usually File>Page Setup. The right margin could be set to 5.0 in instead of 0.5 in.
