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

It's not just a windows 11 issue, I don't have windows 11 I never upgraded and had the problem but went thru the steps and finally stopped the Get /eSCL/ScannerStatus HTTP/1:1 Host error.

That sounds good. I definitely don't have wifi capability on my printer so can't give that a go. I might however try directly connecting to the modem and then bringing it back to the laptop and see if it 'rights itself that way.

Thanks heaps.

Wifi is an operating system option when you are not connected directly to the internet. It's not a card. It's part of the networkng settings.

My desktop is typically connected to the internet more or less directly. I say more or less because before the advent of ubiquitous portable pcs, desktops were stationary with a port for an internet cable, referred to then as an RS232 cable. I have a special dongle that handles the cable connection ultimately through a usb to my Dell Inspiron.

What I did, that mysteriously, "fixed" the error was unplug the direct connection to the internet, connect to my home router's wifi and print. That is, I connected wirelessly to the internet but used the usb printer plug to print. What makes absolutely no sense to me is why, when connected directly to the internet, I get the printer error using the same usb connection to my printer but when I printed connected by wifi, I did not get the error. Even more puzzling is why, after that successful wifi print, subsequent direct connections are error free. This is why I say it's not a printer specific error. I used the same physical connection to my Epson printer when I was connected directly to the internet and when I was connected to the internet using wifi. No error with wifi.

It makes no sense unless there is something in the o/s wifi software that resets whatever is messed up in the o/s print routines.

Starting more than a year ago, when the error first appeared for me, I've applied every suggestion in this thread to no avail. Nothing fixed the error. I have been error free since this crazy one time dip over to wifi a couple of months ago. I am connected directly now and can even leave my printer on overnight.

The tech at one stage talked about an optional additional part that I may have been able to purchase. 'Card' was probably the wrong word. It may have been called something else. I didn't absorb the information fully because I wasn't interested at the time for the extra cost. I was happy enough to plug it in until this printing error popped up. :)

What do you mean Wifi card ? They don't have Wifi cards that you buy separate you either have it wireless wifi or usb wifi plugged into your computer
