KB ID 0000806 

Problem

A client whose HP 2055 printers had previously worked fine, then all of them suddenly started doing this? They had recently installed a Laserjet 400 Network printer and suspected that was the cause. When they printed something they got an extra page like so;

GET /DevMgmt/DiscoverTree.xml HTTP/1.1
Host : 127.0.0.1:8080

and / or

PCL XL Error
Subsystem: KERNEL
Error: IllegalTag
Operator: 0x
Position: 6255

Solution

Right click the printer in question > Printer properties > Device Settings > Set Printer Status Notifications to Disabled > Set Duplex Unit to Installed > Apply > OK.
