PCL XL Errorr from HP Laserjet 5
I am experienceing Two PCs that are printing error pages, one PC more then the other. The error reads as follows.

PCL XL Error
Subsystem: Kernal
Error: Illegal Tag
Operator: 0x1b
Position: 641

Any ideas, I have visited HP's site and tried a few simple things. I was thinking driver. But all PC's are using this driver and only some are getting the error??

With the info you've given I'm not sure if you're running the same OS Version on each or if you used the default OS Driver which can be out of date. Also, different programs could cause this issue due to Font's and such. Anyway, I'd definately playwith getting the most up to date Drivers for this HP5L from HP Online and start from there since that's an easy fix. Hope this helps.....
