no Bob i just touch the entire printhead plastic block when the printer
is off and the head is in the parking position on the left.
I have to say that everything in the printer's inside is hot.
I also noticed that the part outside behind is also hot (current and usb
part).
Should i try to remove the printheads and then see if it still generates
heat?
Should i call HP support?
Thank you very much Bob for your precious help!
