Hi:
I have a new HP Photosmart 6520 e-Printer-Scanter-Copier.
It has setup correctly,...prints, scans and copies; however,
the printouts have regular, thin ,horizontal white bars across them, spaced-evenly vertically down the page.
In other words...
The streaking is from left to right...and each streak-line is thin, like a piece of sewing thread.
Theses horizontal lines are spaced vertically: they appear parallel,
and the spacing between these parallel lines appears to be constant.
I have removed and reinserted all print cartridges, aligned the printheads, and cleaned the printheads many times, including recycling the printer (On/Off). The printouts still have this thin horizontal streaking to them...even in the
Print Quality Diagnostic Report... and the Status Report has some slight fading in the right side of the black rectangle.
The 4 ink cartridge levels are fine...each at roughly at 45%.
This thin streaking occurs evenly-space vertically: the spacing is 9/16"
Is this maybe a problem with the printer's paper roller system ?
It seems that this may be a roller problem, since the streaking-spacing is the same between streaks.
If so, I do not feel that it is the little nylon rollers, since they are at only certain positions along the hoizontal axis.
The streaking that I have, is continuous from left-to-right (not spaced apart as the nylon rollers are).
Any ideas ?
Thank you
