OMG, so glad I found your clip! I was one step away from throwing the beast out the window. I didn't have industrial alcohol so I used vodka! Now the printer's happy and so am I. :-)
A thousand thanks to YOU!!!!! My printed sheets had faded horizontal lines about 1/8" wide and about 4" apart. Thought I'd have to pay for repairs or $400 for a new MFC. After watching your video, I looked at the roller and saw what appeared to be one permanent scratch about 1/8th inch wide the entire length of the roller. I used 91% alcohol (had it on hand) and soft toilet paper. It took me about an hour of really vigorous scrubbing to make it disappear. The 1st printed sheet looked twice as bad as before cleaning. I forgot to let printer warm up, so I let printer warm up about 1 minutes and printed again. Every sheet after that 1st one came out PERFECT!! You saved me a trip to repair shop who may have sold me a $400 printer. Jack, home business, Las Vegas.
My issue ended up being that the little green tab wasn't all the way to the left, and pushing it back into place fixed the line of ink for me. Thank you!
Omg you are a life saver. I thought my drum was messed up and was going to break this printer into pieces because i was pissed. I did what you did and found out that a small debris was stuck in the roller and it keeps giving me a vertical line. Thank you so much
OMG! Thank you so much for doing this video! Had already bought a new printer several months ago because of smudge lines on old printer then when new printer started doing the same thing...luckily, I found your video. Cleaned away small debris spot and voila perfect printing! Did same on previous old printer and also great printing now. Really appreciate this!
So simple! Should have been obvious to me, but it wasn't. My somewhat elderly MFC-8480N's drum was barely visible under the built up toner residue. I wish I had found your excellent video sooner, but I'm just glad to have found it at all.
Lines on my printouts have been an ongoing problem. I have a color printer which holds 4 cartridges. I would run through several test prints that seemed to help but not completely. Ran the green tab back and forth many times but did not take care of the problem. Used your solution and it was joyous to see the lines were gone! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much! I was getting a black streak across the page. Also with multiple pages some pages had dark smears on the ends. I used your method to clean the drum and corona wire. Had to do it twice, but now all is well again!
Thank you! Great video! I just cleaned my drum (large green roller barrel slowly turning it to find the spots) with my eye glass cleaner & Q-tips and was careful not to have excess cleaner on the Q-tip and was very patient and gentle AND IT WORKED!!! My printed documents went from having black spots all over it to just 1 and I will be working on that one next 🎉🎉😊👍
Has anyone told you today how much you rock? Well, if not, I'll start the line! Thanks so much for your excellent tutorial. Cleaned the toner drum and bam, problem solved. You're the bestest! Thanks!
Worked excellent. Print looks like new (I had a black horizontal band across the page). I did purchase similar Isopropyl alcohol wipes from the local drug store ($3 for 100 in the first aid section) and used a bunch as they are tiny, but it rubbed off some of the caked on toner really well. It dried quickly and didn't scratch anything. Thanks!

What is the name of the roller that you were cleaning in the first time? Thanks
Br -- seized you up!
My problem was spot printed at 75mm. I cleaned and worked.
My issue ended up being that the little green tab wasn't all the way to the left, and pushing it back into place fixed the line of ink for me. Thank you!
Basically clean the drum and the housing!
Will you marry me?
Kyocera 1620 copier. After every 400 cps.,uneven small toner dots appearing on copies. Drum & clng.blade replaced new .problem still continuing??..
I installed a new $120 drum, no difference.

This video was a HUGE HELP!! It saved me the hustle to speak to support and probably also the charge for a new roller. Big thank you!!! ❤❤❤
