Doesn't really seem possible logically (imo) that the Print Scratches could be "gear streaks".

Definitely interested to hear more about the gear streaks, but unless I'm not fully understanding the term, I don't think that's what we are looking at here.
The streaks go diagonally in a straight line. Something that would happen when you have paper between two spinning cylinders, and one cylinder is spinning faster than the other with pressure on one side.

A helix of ink around a cylinder is created - like a spinning barber shop pole.



If the stripes were ink, they would produce diagonal lines on a piece of paper.
