My 'ol printer was working great until I put it in a box and moved a few miles down the road.  I unloaded it and started printing again and suddenly, it would literally print HUNDREDS of nonsense pages (see below) whenever I printed something.  The only way I could get it to stop was to turn it off.  When I restarted it, it would start printing those same pages, but not hundreds until I printed something again.  It's been a nightmare.  I've also unplugged it for long periods of time thinking that would work - nope. 

Message it's printing: 

Content - Length: 179 (sometimes this number is higher) 

Content - Type:  application/ ipp

HOST:   localhost

My first guess is that Windows has installed a default IPP driver. I would delete and reinstall the printer from a fresh download.
