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.

    Yes, the stupid solution has obvious benefits but unfortunately I often use my printer for pre-formatted sequential forms and the printout of that STUPID message is unpredictable (and, in line with Murphy's Law, is almost certain to print whenever the forms are loaded).

    I feel your pain, NewNumber2. Mine is with company checks I print out OR costly labels we use. I have gotten to where I save that one **** page that is printed out for the day and TRY to remember to insert it back in the laser printer prior to any print job. I doubt that would work for you NOR is it a smart solution! LOL! Sadly, we have all resorted to having to unplug the USB and I can't do that with the one that is affected because it is the ONLY one that won't print unless it is connected via cable. Ridiculous. WE are on page 33 on this ONE SIMPLE to fix issue, I would assume, because MS is supposed to hire only the brightest of techs, right??? I think not...

    Having the same issue with a HP new printer. It was printing that message to my Canon every time I printed to the HP.

    I went in to the Canon settings and changed the printer spoiling to "Disable". Then printed to my HP. Then went back and changed my settings for my Canon again, to "Automatic". Now it prints fine.

    I have this problem too...it started with my printer at the office. Now it happens with the printer at home. Combined, it is wasting about 4-6 sheets of paper per day. This is not a printer problem. It is a Microsoft problem.

    I have been struggling with finding a solution for over a week now for this as well. Have tried so many fixes suggested on this forum, none have had a lasting effect. It seems, at the moment, the only way around the problem is to disconnect the USB cable from the printer and use other means of connecting your computer to the printer.
