Digital BW, The Print

You mean a thin continous line in the direction of the print head like
one nozzle was firing? After I wore out my first 1280, the second one
started doing this. It was diagnosed on-line by others as the bad
circuit board. I think the lines extending outside the print area is
the key indicator. Epson did a warranty replacement for mine. 

Sorry I can't offer any hope if it's out of warranty.
