I am using a Phaser 740 and have begun experiencing a vertical streak on one edge of the paper. I pulled out the imaging unit and there is a black streak on it. I tried to clean it but it continued to come back.

Can someone tell me - do I need to replace the imaging unit, or do I need to replace a different component?

Any help would be great. Thanks
 
It probably is a failure of the cleaning blade on the imaging unit and the only recourse is to replace the unit.
 
i have a similar problem of a vertical streak but i think it is caused by some surface scarring on the top of the two rollers in the fuser unit (not the fuser roll) it may be that the roller is damaged. Does it need to be replaced and where can I get this?
 
It does seem that the unit should be replaced. My company is an authorized Service repair center but probally not local to you.

I would recommend checking with one that is local to you for parts. You can goe to this website address to search by zip code all the repair centers for xerox.
