At no particular time or schedule my printer prints three pages with three to 4 rows of text. 

 

Page 1:

GET / HTTP/1.1

Host: 192.168.1.4:9100

User-Agent: curl/7.59.0

Accept: */*

 

Page 2:

HEAD /  HTTP/1.1

Host: 192.168.1.4:9100

User-Agent: curl/7.59.0

Accept: */*

 

Page 3:

OPTIONS * RTSP/1.0

CSeq: 1

User-Agent: curl/7.59.0

 

I do not understand why and am irritated that it is wasting paper and ink. Please help.

I have gone through your Post and I understand your concerns

 

I suggest your restore the printer settings back to default and then connect it back to your network

 

1. From the printer control panel, touch or swipe down the tab at the top of the screen to open the Dashboard, and then touch ( Setup ).

2. Touch Printer Maintenance .

3. Touch Restore.

4. Touch Restore Factory Defaults. A message appears stating that the factory defaults will be restored.

5. Touch Continue

 

Keep me posted how it goes

Thanks. I'll give it a shot. Just did it and am optimistic. Won't know if it worked for a week or so as there seems to be no particular schedule for the random prints I'm trying to stop.
