Default Voltages too far out of spec?

Over the years, I've seen voltages printed on PCs that were incorrect for the version of board as loaded. IOW, manufacturers will often make running changes to a product design and revise parts loaded on the board and even use a different transformer to feed it. Since they have may have boards already screened, they're not going to scrap them out.

If HP has archived schematics, they may have a revised schematic that more closely or even exactly matches the voltages you're encountering.
