bobbi13,

Are you using Dell Series 9 ink cartridges?

Go to ImageShack® upload the image and post the direct link back here. A picture of the document may reveal the problem.

Yes - series 9 black, color and I have also tried changing to the photo ink as well. Same results. They are not random ink stain lines, but it looks like 5 lines grouped together to form a bar, under or across every few lines line of text or graphics.

yes, i print alot of photos. : ) I cannot imagine it sitting too long...I use it almost daily. It just suddenly started misprinting.  Is there a way to attach a scanned image here? I could attach a test page to show example.

bobbi13,

Photo goes in the black side.

If the lines are across and at the same measurement, I would guess you have a flat spot on the roller, sometimes from sitting too long.
