  • In your Windows toolbar, click to search, enter "Printers & scanners" and press Enter
  • Choose the printer from the list
  • Choose Printing Preferences
  • Choose the Advanced tab
  • Expand the Notification settings
  • Set "Notify for Completed Jobs" and "Notify for Failed, Canceled or Altered Jobs" to Disabled
  • Click OK to apply the settings and exit
