There is a Black line on the Ricoh Aficio 3045 Drum Help for Remove ????

if you can clean the black line with a cloth, than you need just to replace the cleaning blade, but if the black line is not removing without a cloth, then you need to replace the opc drum and the cleaning blade or both blades, some machines of this type have only one cleaning blade but some have two cleaning blade.

If you go into "user tools" is there a printer and scanner option there? If not the MFD does not have the print option.... If it does you need to program the IP address sub net and gateway. -Carl

I guess you talk about Ricoh MP 1800.
The Black lines on the bottom appear because the copier has made more than 60,000 prints or more if new.
If it's bought used, than it has made 60,000 or more prints from the last change of the drum and the drum cleaning blade. For the print to be clean again, it will need to be changed the drum and drum cleaning blade. This copier as all other copiers have parts that have a yield.

could be drum or fuser assy

Remove the OPC unit,clean the charge corona,charge corona grid,clean or change the OPC drum cleaning blade.

call tech or buy a drum assy

Cleaning the drum will not help. Depending on many factors including drum condition, number of pages printed etc, you will need at least to replace the drum cleaning blade. This is a common cause of black streaks. The drum should have been clean. The fact that it has toner on the surface is pretty good proof that the cleaning blade is bad. The part number for the blade is B0392289. I would do a search for this part and get one before you even think about trying to deal with the streaking problem. Once you get the blade, if you are mechanically inclined then replacing the blade is not difficult.
Good Luck and Thank You for using Fixya.

a) If possible remove the drum unit and see if there is a paper stuck in the drum unit.
To remove the drum unit first open the front and right door. Then remove the toner holder(green lock).
Then pull the drum unit out from the front of the machine(press the lock).
b) How many prints(copies) has the drum made ?
The life is 60000.If it has crossed its life replace it along with the developer.
