PCL XL error

[Michel Jourdevant]

NT 4.0 Workstation SP4
HP Laserjet 8000 Driver version 4.01

Some users when they print from Excel receive the error PCL XL error
IllegalStreamHeader.

Any ideas, thanks
Michel

Michel,

Try changing the Page Protect option on the printer. Also, try using the
latest drivers.

did a restore and compare of winnt directory from before having this problem
HPDCMON.dll was different. This is used for language monitor. Technet says
this can cause high spooler utilization anyway. Deleted from registry and
restarted spooler, error all gone.
