HP PSC 1610 - multiple lines in scans and copies, prints OK

I have a 2 year old HR PSC 1610 all in one that has just developed a problem with scans and copies. The printer prints OK. When I scan or copy, I get a very precise, thick set of lines right in the middle of the page, over the image of what is being copied or scanned. I've cleaned the glass, I've done cartridge cleanings and alignments, I've restored factory settings and nothing helps. Is there some kind of scan calibration I can do, or will I need to take the thing apart to clean it? It seems like something with the actual scan mechanism that's broken.

Try a sky scan (No paper on glass and lid up) watch the scanner to see if it is smooth or a somepoint jumpy. If not smooth, you will have to open it up and 1 of two things, dirty and needs lubracation, silicone grease is best vasoline will work. OR 2 the drive belt is loose because the spring tensioner is broken or the belt is dammaged. Good luck

HP PSC 1610 All-In-One paper jam 1/2 sheet

Throw this thing out as it is clearly rubbish. HP inkjet printers will **** the life and money out of you. Get a Brother HL-2170W and you will have care free printing for cheap.

Cheers old chap.

LARGE HORIZONTAL BLACK LINE- PSC 1610 PRINTER COPIES

NO, I DID NOT GET IT FIXED. YOU TOLD ME TO SCAN SOMETHING TO THE PC, WHICH I DID. SENT PAGE TO MICROSOFT WORD AND THE BLACK LINE WAS STILL THERE. I BELIEVE MY SOLUTION IS TO JUNK THIS THING AND BUY ANOTHER.
