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.

    I tried that also and it didn't work. I ultimately had to go to the wifi setting and take off the usb cable but Microsoft needs to get an update to fix the problem when using the USB cable

    I tried that also, it worked for a couple of days and then it started again.

    Every time I try something it seems to work for a couple of days and starts again.

    So frustrating.

    I am hopeful that I have resolved the problem on my Brother HL-L2370DW. Per a suggestion from Brother, I went to Printers and Scanners (had to search and go directly as my Settings menu does not have a Bluetooth & Printers option).

    Under Printers & Settings, select Related Settings

    Then select the Advanced Tab and

    Deselect "Show Informational Notifications For Local Printers"

    It has been over 24 hours now without a "Get /eSCL/ScannerStatus HTTP/1.1 Host: Localhost"

    I have been having the same issue with my Epson ET-4760. In reading down through the thread I found where someone posted a solution that has worked for me, Here is what I did:

    Turn off the printer

    Shut down the PC (mine also happened to also have a BIOS update)

    Leave the PC off for at least 2 minutes. (doing a restart does nothing)

    Power the PC back up

    Once the PC is up turn on the printer

    Worked for me also, but Microsoft should find a fix for using the usb port since not everyone has wifi
