I get three pages of what are some sort of HTTP request printed almost every night at 10-11PM.
First page
GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: x.x.x.x:9100
User-Agent: curl/7.59.0
Accept: */*
Second page
OPTIONS * RTSP/1.0
CSeq: 1
User-Agent: curl/7.59.0
Third page
HEAD / HTTP/1.1
Host: x.x.x.x:9100
User-Agent: curl/7.59.0
Accept: */*
1) What is this?
2) How do I stop it?
Thanks!!

@relaxinbob, Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Make sure the printer is connected to a secure network.
Restart the network devices
- Turn off the Router, Printer, and the computer/ mobile devices.
- Wait for 60 seconds.
- Turn on the Router first and wait for all the lights to stabilize.
- Turn on the printer and allow it to configure itself.
- Turn on the computer/ mobile devices.
Turn Off-web services on the printer. Refer to this document for instructions.
If the issue persists, assigning a static IP address to the printer may help.
Let me know how this goes.

I did a factory reset, and that seems to have eliminated the three pages by nature of disabling web services. I still get output if I open a web browser and type in the IP address of the printer with port 9100 (http://x.x.x.x:9100). The web page never loads in the browser. Only after I close that tab or the browser altogether, I get a text page output with a bunch of information about the web query. Is there some sort of diagnostic mode turned on by accident?
