vertical line on my scanned document

[RPark]

This was also the problem on my scanner. A very small (very, very small) dot of red ink dried on the glass was creating a red (in color) or black (b&w) line down every scanned page. Now that I see what it was, it makes sense what I was seeing on the document: a repeated red dot all the way down the page that are so close together it comes out as a line.

Cleaned, and line is gone. It took some gentle scrubbing, as that little pinhead spot was stuck on pretty good!

Thank you very much, i had the same issue and once i followed your instructions and clean the feeder scan glass, the line was disappered.

Many thanks.
