My computer continues to ( after over a year) print out the letter "G".  No one seems to have an answer.  However, I've noticed, that it usually starts up after I get low on ink.  HP-bots start hammering me about signing up with HP's printer ink program.  I keep trying to get rid of that scam since I can buy my ink much cheaper, when I actually need it, at other venues.  It is usually during this period that the rate of arbitrarily printing out the letter "G" seems to accelerate.  Yesterday I was on a ZOOM call and the HP-bot started sending me a pot load of scam directing me to sign up for the HP printer ink program.  It was shortly followed with a print out of a letter "G".  I've sent a series of emails to anyone and everyone I could at HP telling them if they don't come up with a solution that I was going to load my printer into my bateaux, row out to the middle of Passamaquoddy Bay and throw it overboard, but not before I replaced it with a Cannon printer similar to the one my wife uses and never gets scammed by Cannon and definitely never gets the letter "G" arbitrarily printed out everyday. I've used HP printers since Jesus rode a donkey, but the honeymoon is over now!
