Hi @Mallik123,

 

Welcome to The HP Support Community.  

 

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

 

I understand your printer might be experiencing a communication issue or receiving some additional data after each print job. Here are some steps you can take to try to resolve this issue:

 

  • Restart Your Printer: Sometimes a simple restart can resolve unexpected behavior. Turn off your printer, wait for a few minutes, and then turn it back on.
  • Check Printer Settings: Ensure that your printer settings are configured correctly. Look for any settings related to page formatting, job completion notifications, or additional pages.
  • Update Printer Firmware: Visit the HP website and check if there are any firmware updates available for your printer model. Updating the firmware can sometimes fix bugs or compatibility issues. Update the firmware on an HP printer
  • Check Print Queue: Make sure there are no pending print jobs in the print queue. Sometimes, if there are multiple print jobs queued up, it can cause unexpected behavior.
  • Update Printer Drivers: Ensure that you have the latest drivers installed for your printer on your computer. Outdated drivers can sometimes cause compatibility issues. HP LaserJet Pro M201dw Software and Driver Downloads
  • Network Connection: If your printer is connected to a network, ensure that the network connection is stable and that there are no issues with the network configuration.
  • Reset Printer Settings: If all else fails, you can try resetting your printer to its factory default settings. Refer to your printer's user manual for instructions on how to do this.
