Remove toner and drum.
Look in opening, probably ABOVE toner/rum (if same as my Brother) is a small glass strip. Take a piece of tissue paper (kitchen paper is best) and gently clean this. DRY CLEAN !
If there is dust / other debris on this is will obstruct the laser beam causing a blank line.

it depends which way the line goes...top to bottom as the page exits? side to side as it exits?t-b can be dirt in the charge wire(corona) causing a hot spot that wil not charge the drum properly. s-s can be a roller or sticking problem (jitter)with the feed or optics.dirty optics will give you a dark line...there are alot of variables but most problems are dirt related.need more info if that doesnt help...

Most printer software has a adjustment section for realigning the printer heads after ink/toner changes.

Maybe you need to calibrate the printer... i work with Three Xerox Printers and when that happens the technician just calibrates the colors once again...

look for a dab of white out dust or marker on the roller or glass, if so then clean it
