After windows 11 24h2 upgrade printer prints a few pages, the first with error message

I have a Canon MF643cdw printer as a local printer on a Windows 11 pro desktop connected by usb. A few days ago I upgraded the desktop to the Windows 24H2 level. When I now switch on the printer, the printer itself prints 4 pages. On the first page there are a few lines :

POST /ipp-print HTTP-1.1

Connection: keep alive

Content-type: application/ipp

User-agent: Windows internet print provider

Content-Length:626

host:local host"

I already uninstalled and re-installed the printer, unchecked the informative notifications. But no success. Before the upgrade everything worked well, the issue was introduces by the 24h2 upgrade.

What is the solution for this?

    Hi Bob,

    thanks for your reaction.

    I had and today have tried the solutions mentioned in the articles.

    I again removed and installed the latest driver. The printer is on the latest firmware.

    I tried another usb cable.

    And disabled the usb selective suspend in the power options.

    But issue persists.

    The only difference with before the 24h2 upgrade is that after switching on the printer it prompts "waiting" in its display and then puts out the dummy pages (no print job given). It seems to me that usb connection goes to standby after some time if the printer is not online or goes itself to standby.

    Hello, bernard77

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

    Hello, thank you for your feedback on your issue here, it seems that after upgrading to the 24H2 the printer is experiencing some anomalies when printing.

    I first did some research for you, there are other users who have fed back similar issues, which include different brands of printers, from the feedback, due to the incompatibility of the manufacturer's driver with win11, you can first refer to similar threads below. Some of the methods mentioned may help you:

    When i start the canon MF 249d dw printer, then the pages start - Microsoft Community

    Brother Laser Printer printing Multiple pages afetr 24h2 update - Microsoft Community

    Random printing of rubbish eg. localhost, Keep-Alive, Windows Internet - Microsoft Community

    In addition, it is recommended that you also feedback this issue to the printer's manufacturer to get the latest adapted driver for connection

    Best regards
