This appears on the top of every printout from my Windows 11 machine to my Retroprinter...

*edit*
Apparantly yes, because it's in the ignore_strings ALREADY in Retroprinter, just need to turn on ignore_codes option!

Glad you found it - yes, this is do with "Epson Job Control" which is used to surround print jobs sent to Epson laser printers (so far as I can ascertain). There is not a lot of information about this unfortunately.
