    What is the make and model of your printer, and how old is it?

    Printer services are a backdoor into the windows updates. Naughty MS....

    Cannot remember which service now, but its there and took me a while to track it down.

    Stopping windows 10 auto updating was not easy. Stopped/Disabled services kept auto loading again and again.
