Hi @RayHasty ,

 

Welcome to The HP Support Community.  

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

I understand you are facing an issue with your HP Product. Not to worry I will help you to get a resolution to resolve the issue.

It seems like your printer is experiencing a communication issue or receiving unexpected print commands. The text you provided appears to be HTTP headers, specifically related to the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP), which is commonly used for network printing.

Here's what each line generally means:

  1. Content-Length: 184: This header indicates the length of the content body that follows. The number "184" may vary depending on the actual content being sent.
  2. Content-Type: application/ipp: This specifies the type of content being sent, in this case, it's IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) data.
  3. Host: localhost: This header specifies the hostname or IP address of the target server. "localhost" typically refers to the local machine itself.

It seems like there might be a script or program sending these IPP requests to your printer. You may want to check your network for any devices or software that might be sending these print commands unintentionally. Additionally, ensure that your printer's network settings are configured correctly and that it's not being accessed by unauthorized devices.

I hope this helps. 

 

Take care and have a good day.
