HP Envy 6230
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi support,

Today I installed my new HP Envy 6230 and all went well, got it running wireless in my network, did some print jobs and did an software upgrade.

I was all happy, but about an hour later, we started to smell a strange smell coming from the printer.

Hard to describe how it smells exactly, but is more like chemical then burning.

Am 100% sure I removed all the plastic stuff and am pretty sure this is not normal.

What do you suggest?
