Loud beeping when Printer is printing

[sunnykarrot]

My printer - HP Color LaserJet M255dw - is making a whole lot of beeping while it's printing. Is there anything that can be done to turn the beeping off?

- It's plugged in correctly. 

- Setup is done correctly

- No error messages

- No preferences or sound settings on the panel OR in the HP Smart Advanced settings of the printer

it's really starting to get annoying.
