Printer keeps printing text and code with my prints

[Matthew Smothers]

My dad’s printer keeps printing this long string of code every time he turns it on or tries to print something, Printers have always been kind of a mystery to me, so how do I stop this?

exact model of this printer? does it connect to some pc or network?

That should not happen on standard setups, read through this https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...atically/42778cd6-e8f9-40b0-9c79-dce64604f079

Some setup that was done is sending a print job to the printer.
