    It is an ink jet printer... do I have a drum?

    I took each cartridge out, thinking the black was leaking somehow because I can't imagine how ink is going on the back side of the print surface when it is a straight through paper feed. Reseating the cartridges did not effect the problem. This has been going on for a while and increasing going from an occasional smudge to as I have said, a solid 1/4 streak down the back side. The front side is fine except the black is bleeding through. ♠

Open a blank document and print it. (You can print a blank Ms-word document). Now check the print out, does the black streak come out with it? If so, continue with the blank prints several times and check whether it subsides (reduces) or not. If so, there must be ink splattered inside the paper passage, if you can't disassemble the printer, you better print several blank documents and clean it. You can use wasted papers, no matter how dirty they are.

If nothing comes out with it, then let me know. I would need the name of the operating system installed on your computer.

I will assist you how to troubleshoot and fix the issue.

Thanks and awaiting.

When you print each page has a gray/black line running down the page from top to bottom about 2.5 inches from the edge of the paper. Sometimes it is darker and other times it is lighter. We have tried...

While the line is showing up on the output pages.
Stop printing and put paper in the manual feed tray (tray 1).
Start printing again. As a page gets pulled into the printer about 1/2 way open the top cover.
Pull out the toner and look at the page inside the printer. If it doesn't have the grey/black line, get the fuser replaced. It is defective.

I keep getting a black line on the back of most printed pages

Hi there
This is a leak from the ink or it is your waste ink pads full, you will have to clean all the inside out, the ink getting on to the rollers.

MP830 prints a black stripe down the back of the paper

the waste ink pads are full ..when the black line appears it is an indicator that the waste ink pads are full it is usualy because the printer has reached its life expectancy the solution is either buy a new printer or pay a tech about 170 dollars to repair it
