HP OfficeJet 7410 Scanner Alignmeng Problem

We've got an OfficeJet 7410 wifi'd onto our home network. It has worked great for the year-plus that we've owned it. All of a sudden today, my GF fed a couple of sheets into the feeder to copy them. They came out crooked, with the text at the bottom of the page offset slightly (but noticeably) to the right. When you print a document, it prints perfectly. So I wanted to see if it was the feeder, or the scanner, since the print function seems to work ok. I put a sheet directly on the glass and hit "copy" to see how it would do. It copied crooked, as with those run thru the sheet feeder. So apparently the scan bed is out of alignment, which is odd because the printer never gets moved. Any ideas what it could be? TSF was very helpful when I was having a mobo problem last year, so I figured I'd see if anybody had any ideas. Thanks a bunch.
