1. Your printer/scanner is advertising itself in multiple ways using different protocols and ports to make itself visible to the maximum range of device that may want to use a printer/scanner and to offer different services - looks like it may have a web page that it might use to show status. The PC is seeing these advertisements and interpreting (some of) them as being possibly useful so they get shown.
2. See if the advertisements can be controlled from source by restricting the printer/scanner services, e.g the http and/or https services might have an option to disable them. Turning network services off will reduce the functionality of the printer/scanner and may stop other devices from being able to connect to it. I suppose you could look at your PC firewall settings to block the services you don't want to see. Depends how much trouble they are causing you.
