GET /eSCL/ScannerStatus HTTP/1.1The question is how do I stop it.

My printer is prompted to print this at the top of pages, usually from drawer #2 which is envelopes. I have an Epson WF-4740. The information on line indicates that this is an across the board problem. I have contacted Epson and they say it is a Microsoft problem. To date I have tried every suggested fix but nothing stops it. Extremely frustrating!!!!

End.

    Glad it worked for you. WiFi seems to be the only solution right now, I've had no problems since I unplugged the USB completely, removed all software for the printer and reinstalled it using the "WiFi only" option. I note some have tried this and it didn't work, it may be super-important that the WiFi only option is selected to stop it even looking for the USB but, honestly, I don't know. My Brother printer is working perfectly since I followed the Wifi only option, so I've stopped investigating for another solution.

    I finally had to setup as WiFi and it so far has been okay, but hopefully Microsoft will have an update to fix the USB issue

    Follow all the steps:

    Get /eSCL/ScannerStatus HTTP/1.1 Host: Localhost

    1. I did: under "print spooler" > properties>"Automatic", then click OK

    2.I did : WIN + S search control panel> device and printer>printer properties>device settings> installable options>disable the "printer status notification"

    STILL THE SAME ISSUE WITH WINDOWS 11. Microsoft needs to fix their problem.

    I have Lexmark printer.

    Please try the solution found here:

    This worked for me!!!! Thank you so much. I have an Epson EcoTank 2800 and it was driving me crazy. Staying on Wifi really isn't an option for me because the graphics I need to print out would stop if the wifi dropped (which apparently happens quite a bit for me).

    I am having the same problem with my HL-L51100DN (Brother printer). I have uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled them; I have checked every single property or printer property and advanced tab that I can find. I have now accumulated enough of these stupid pages to make a book. Can't someone please find the solution? This is a terrible waste of paper and toner. HELP! Mary
