I have an HP Laserjet P2055dn and it has started putting small vertical lines about 3 inches apart on the right side of my paper.  I cleaned the rollers, changed the laserjet cartridge, and nothing has helped it.  Any suggestions?

Measure the distance between defects carefully. This chart will tell you which component is the likely cause

The lines are not measurable, because they're at different positions.  I did try pulling out the paper before it reached the upper chamber, so I know it must be during the printing process and not when it's coming through the rollers, but I changed toner cartridges yesterday, so I know it's not that, and my drum is built in to that.  Any other suggestions?
