Pcl Xl Error Warning Illegalmediasource Fix
down vote accepted Related question: PCL XL Error The problem lies in the usage of PCL6 drivers. It is likely that Windows XP does not support the drivers perfectly and thus causes errors (Illegal Media Source means that it tries to fetch paper from a tray that doesn't exist). PCL5e has been around for longer and doesn't have such issues. Bottom line: use PCL5e over PCL6 if you encounter problems. share|improve this answer answered Aug 13 '13 at 7:51 Sašo 1,1991611 add a comment| up vote 0 down vote It could well be drivers, however most posts I've seen suggested you shut-down your printer and cold start it up (remove AC power) This worked for me. share|improve this answer answered Feb 11 '15 at 9:33 user269836 1 add a comment| Your Answer draft saved draft discarded Sign up or log in Sign up using Google Sign up using Facebook Sign up using Email and Password Post as a guest Name Email Post as a guest Name Email discard By posting your answer, you agree to the privacy policy and terms of service.

A user who is running Windows 7 32 bit edition is sending pcl xl error files to print (using the secure print function) - the system is reporting they have spooled fine to the printer - but when they go and release the document they are getting (more often than not) about 16 out of 21 pages (for example) and then a PCL XL Error (Subsystem: Text, InternalError 0x50, Operator: Text, Position: 8564). I have another document that 9 times out of ten will actually crash the WorkCentre completely and cause it to reboot mid way through printing.The driver we are using is the latest: "Xerox WorkCentre 7655 rev 2.0 PCL6"As mentioned the user is running Windows 7 - the printer is shared from a Windows 2003 Server which has the same version of the driver.Any suggestions from anyone?Kind regards,Luke Solved!

Solved New PCL XL error illegal Media Size Posted on 2010-06-30 Printers and Scanners 1 Verified Solution 3 Comments 10,075 Views Last Modified: 2013-12-15 There are some other posts here and on other web sites saying to change the driver. This doesn't apply to this problem. We are using the 32 bit and 64 bit UPD PCL (v5.1) driver from HPs web site. This is happening on a CLJ 4700 and a CLJ 2550. I have deleted the printers and recreated them on the server to be sure nothing was left behind. When my boss and two other employees print to the same printer using the same driver and setting from the server they get the PCL XL error illegal Media Size error on the following page. On the non working PCs I have gone into server properties and removed all other drivers and installed the driver from the server and verified it is working but it still prints that second page with the error. When most people print using the driver from the server it doesn't print the extra page with the error. This happens when printing a self test with in Windows 7 Devices and Printers so it isn't an application issue. We have tested PDFs, Word, Excel, Outlook, Publisher files and they all print the second page with the error on the non working PCs. The UPD PS (v5.1) driver doesn't generate the error so I added that as an option but they didn't seem to like scrolling to a different printer. The self test for the non working PCs pri
