Vertical black line appears in
copies.
Black vertical lines on copies are typically caused by dirt or correction fluid on the
glass strip, or the corona wire is dirty. (See Cleaning the scanner in Appendix A of
the Advanced User's Guide and Cleaning the corona wires on page 70.)
Copies are blank. Make sure you are loading the document properly. (See Using the automatic
document feeder (ADF) on page 26 or Using the scanner glass on page 27.)
