This printer's status says it's sleeping but there is a constant whining noise. The power supply is the culprit after searching through various reviews and complaints. HP needs to figure this out as this has been an issue for over 5 years after searching this issue. Anyone have this issue and get it fixed?

So the power supply is IN the printer on this model. Will probably be returning this printer as HP has some issues they clearly aren't dealing with and the constant electrical noise IS a problem. It gets really loud when the printer is awake. If there's a power issue in production, I would be afraid of it causing a fire.
