Can you post a sample picture of the print you are getting? if they are repetitive lines down the page could be a component issue. if they are random lines it could simply be a bad driver.

Hey there! If you're experiencing the frustrating issue of black lines appearing when you print, it could be due to the imaging drum in your laser printer. It's a vital component that prevents excess ink from causing those pesky lines. If you're using a new printer or haven't replaced the imaging drum, that might be the culprit. It's worth checking out to ensure your prints come out perfect every time!
