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.

What a waste of resources (paper, ink, workload)
It is only after It prints half pages with the notice, can I print what I want without the garbage.

I went to my Start menu, uninstalled "HP Smart" and have had no problems since. And I have an Epson printer.

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.
