Hey all. I have a coworker with an ir-adv c2230 giving green lines on copies as well as internal prints. I don't have a photo (sorry). We've tried replacing the ITB as well as the laser unit. Has anyone else run across a green line?

Replace green drum.
You are very modest with data.Please post a picture.
Practice makes perfect
If it ain't broke, don't fix it
A picture is worth a thousand words
If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself
Asuming feed direction :
If you get a green line in a spot where you would expect another color, like in a picture, i'd suspect the magenta drum haveing a blank. IE Yellow and Cyan, but no Magenta on that area. Like Dan7777 says, do a PG10, or a PG5 in magenta...
You replaced the laseunit, so i guess you also checked to see if somehing is blocking the laser for magenta on the spot where the line is ?
Hey guys! Sorry for the gaps, I haven't posted much and don't know what information to put out. The line is in the direction of paper feed, 2/3 of the way down the page. It doesn't replace colors. It does not travel with the paper, and appears exactly the same on every page. The line comes in the same spot on B/W, Picture/text, or on a blank page. It shows up on internal prints as well as copies.
I will ask my co-worker for a picture. He works 2 hours away, and asked for help with troubleshooting. I suggested an ITB and Laser unit, which he replaced and it did not help.
I'd do a PG5 on all of the separate colors and do a halfway print (open door during printing) to see when the line occurs (on drum, on ITB, after Fuser).
Black line
(color line)
Check that black line does not appear on entire image.
Scratch on Photosensitive Drum
Dirt on Primary Charging Roller

You place a BLANK white sheet of paper on copy-glass.
Press start\copy, if there shows a green line down page that goes from lead edge to trail edge , tech needs to look at optics, including laser (again).
Note: a line can be digital one (electrical /board issue) or mechanical one( ITB, DRUM,DEV,FUSER)
**Knowledge is time consuming, exhausting and costly for a trained Tech.**
Thanks guys, I will be going over this afternoon to help and I will try your suggestions!
Also, I have never heard of a line from a board? I am still a baby tech though, only a year in.
