    MX-3100n - Printing faint black lines side to side & help provide latest Firmware?

    Ok guys first post.. so apologize if I get this incorrect. I am not a tech or anything.. but I did stay at a holiday inn express once 😁😂

    I got a MX-3100n from a friend who was getting ride of it. He said it was working fine except that it has some faint black lines that print on the bottom of the page side to side.. NOT top to bottom. They kinda go in and out.. sometimes they fade away and are barely noticeable, but then they come back.

    Now I did do some Google searching and did the manual cleaning thing with the 2 wand.. both the "green" and "gray" wands..

    I have a sample of what I am looking at attached. Sorry for the big pic.. but hopefully you see the lines on the bottom of the page..

    Lastly, can anyone else help me get the latest firmware for this printer? Its kinda idiotic that the firmware isnt distributed for free. I guess thats how they make their money.

    Thanks in advance

      We'll need an example, it could be :
      -drum
      -coronna
      -1st transfer
      -2nd transfer
      -fuser
      -something terrible

          Nope, don't see it.
          Try telepathically.
