Have you tried cleaning the document feeders Scan Glass? (small glass under doc feeder ~ 1" by 9") Most times there is dirt spot on this glass, causing a shadow on scans and copies.
Try copying from the large glass by lifting doc feeder / platen cover and manually placing original. If no line copying or scanning manually from large glass, then small scan glass is deffenitely the culprit. Hope this helps.

clean your scan glass (thin strip of glass running from front to back, underneath document feeder) with a soft cloth and alcohol.

SET IT AS YOUR DEFAULT PRINTER

You need to have "Scan" on your printer.
Insert what you want scanned where you would photo-copy and push "scan". Follow your prompts on screen.

Just push them in horizontally ie. completely straight. You have to push pretty hard - just make sure you don't overdo it - until they go no further.

Hi,
you probably don,t have the correct or all of the drivers installed.
The second possibility, is the software scanning program.
You could try 1 called paperport.
Hope this helps Mike@Compurepair.
