B Copy quality difficulties Difficulties Vertical black line appears in copies. Suggestions Black vertical lines on copies are typically caused by dirt or correction fluid on the glass strip (DCP-7040 and DCP-7045N only), or the corona wire for printing is dirty. (See Cleaning the scanner glass on page 63 and Cleaning the corona wire on page 65. ) B Printing difficulties Difficulties No printout.

(See Replacing the drum unit on page 73. ) Check the interface cable connection on both the machine and your computer.
