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.

    Hello Steve Bump

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    I can provide two steps for you to follow to put your computer to sleep mode again, and wake it up and see if it will print again (we recommend repeating this twice to make sure it is completely gone)

    1. Win+R and type services.msc, find "print spooler" in the list of services, right click on it - properties, set the startup type to "Automatic", then click OK to close it.
    2. WIN + S search control panel, open the device and printer, select printer properties - device settings - installable options, disable the "printer status notification", for different brands of printers and driver versions of this portal interface may be different.

    if you can not find the portal, you need to contact the manufacturer of the brand to obtain the portal, only need to follow up to confirm that you can find Just make sure that you can find the "Printer Status Notification" function and disable it. 

    If anything is unclear, please do not hesitate to let me know.

    Best Regards,

    I have a Brother MFC-L37500CDW multi-function printer/scanner. Was working fine. Upgraded to Windows 11 and now whenever it wakes up from sleeping, it prints a 2-line page saying:

    Get /eSCL/ScannerStatus HTTP/1.1

    Host: Localhost

    Uninstalled Printer, reinstalled -- no change

    Updated printer firmware -- no change

    Switched USB cable to another USB port -- no change

    From what I have seen on multiple forums, this is happening with multiple printers and multiple brands. The only constant is they are all connected via USB and all started happening when upgraded to Windows 11.
