My brand new Envy Inspire 7900e printer will print photos with lines every 3/4 of an inch in the photo.  The lines look like there is an overlap where the inkjet ends one section and begins printing another section.  The photo looks like it is printed on lined paper.  I have rebooted, reconnected the printer with up-to-date drivers, done the diagnostic printing on the Setup print screen, used different paper, tried different photos, printed different size photos with no success.  These lines appear only in photos and not on word documents.  Any suggestions, as I am at a loss?  My printer is 2 weeks old working with Windows 10.
