<p>I peeled off a border edge by the line of one photo and the line is present there too. So all this investigation means everything is OK with the camera, but... I ordered more paper, they might x-ray the package again, and I will end up havin faulty paper... hm... I hope they at customs x-ray packages on random basis, not each and every, otherwise...</p>

<p>Oh, yes... x-rayed during shipment - I will check this as you suggested.</p>

<p>Thank you Patrick and Todd for your input. I was very worried that the camera was faulty, however today I received the 600 film and the photos have no line and otherwise are good, as you can see in the attached picture.<br>

So in fact this means something wrong is with the Artistic paper I ordered from polapremium.com. Probably I will to contact them with my issue, because I ordered more of this paper. <br />By the way, the line on the Artistic paper occurrs exactly at the place on a photograph which is aligned with the slot in camera from which the photo gets out of it. I am not sure what this indicates, just weird regularity.</p><div></div>

<p>Yes Daniel, I changed the film pack to the same sort of ArTistic paper. Soon 600 film pack should arrive and I'll see if there will be any difference.<br>

The rollers seems to be clean now, otherwise they would create multiple lines, as you say.</p>

 

<p>Yes, the arrow shows the ejection direction... now I understand, my saying that 'the line is parallel to the feed direction' was incorrect as the line really is perpendicular. Sorry for confussion :) Well, in this case I guess the line isn't caused by the rollers.</p>

<p>So I cleaned the rollers and "drop-like light leaks" disappeared. In fact some white material had formed on one of the rollers which were clearly visible and after cleaning which there are no 'leaks'.</p>

<p>However the line still is present.<br />Jim, the line is parallel to the feed direction as you can see in the attached photo.</p>

<p>However this is n't caused by dirty rollers - I cleaned them well and they look clean. As I am totally new to using this camera (and to polaroids in general:), I would be very grateful if somebody could suggest how to try to get rid of that photo crossing line.</p>

<p>Thanks Daniel, I'll try when I finish the first pack.<br>

<p>Hello,<br>

Just receintly bought a SX-70 camera and made a few test pictures using ArTistic paper. All of them has a white strip and something like "drop-like light leaks".<br>

You can see the examples here:<br /><a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/mindkal/Test#5336061648415560898">http://picasaweb.google.com/mindkal/Test#5336061648415560898</a><br>

Can somebody help me with explaining what is wrong and if this can be repaired?<br>

Thank you.<br>
