I have the same issue happening.
I checked the WIN+R. Mine is already set to automatic.
What now?
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.

2023-07-26T09:49:27+00:00 Same here. But this has only just started happening over the last couple of weeks. It suddenly started wasting sheets of paper with the messaged typed onec, twice or 3 times. I've had to put scrap paper in so that I have to put fresh sheets in the printer when I actually want to print. This is a nuisance, as it's my on-all-the-time distance printer that I can access from anywhere, and now I can't use it that way. I spent a good half hour on the phone to Epson, who thought they'd cured it. I've tried the 'fix' on here, but spooling is set to auto already and I can't find the referred-to print preference. Sounds like another long call to Epson, but at least this time I'll know it seems to be a Microsoft problem.
When oh when will Microsoft take responsibility for these issues and actually answer our questions? I'm still wrestling with the toolbar issues...

2023-03-20T17:18:22+00:00 This isn't just a Windows 11 problem. I have it on a wi-fi Windows 10 and a desktop USB Windows 11 to Epson WF 4740.

2023-03-20T15:19:06+00:00 My Epson ET-3710 sits there and you can hear the print head going back and forth. If I print a "Test Page", the message will then print on the same page as the Epson "Test Page" and then the printer will stop as long as I'm using my computer. Once my computer goes to sleep and then wakes up it goes though the same thing over again. It's a real pain.

2023-03-06T17:48:31+00:00 This still seems to be an issue. I have not seen any reply from Microsoft with an actual resolution. Can someone please, see if this is a bug within the latest updates? Or let us know what to do to fix this issue? It is with multiple manufacturers and seems to be an issue with those connected via USB.
