Get the latest driver from Canon's web site. Then uninstall the printer. Remove the driver from your computer. Use regedit to remove any traces of your printer from your registry. Install the new driver. That should do it.
Not an expert on this brand of printers but it looks like dirty feeder rollers to me. Try cleaning them and Print a Blank document and see if the marks show up
Are the black marks down both sides of the page and if so what shape are they? Are they a sharp edge black mark or faint feathered mark?
You say the black marks are around the edges of the page, does that mean all 4 edges?
Also is it when you print from your computer or when you copy using the document feeder?
There are 3 possible causes but I need to know the answers to my questions.
Run a half test. Put paper in the manual feed tray. Print something, anything When the paper is 1/2 way into the printer, open the cover. Pull out the toner cartridge. Look down at the paper. Does it have a black line on the right side? If yes, replace the cartridge. If no, replace the fuser.
You are right the drum needs to be replaced. the coating wears down and starts making marks I sell them for 55.00 complete or just the drum for 22.00 It's easy to install a new drum with a screw driver and a pair of needle nose pliers.
