That is most likely not an issue between your computer/network and the printer.
The majority of those errors, I would say 99 percent are internal to the printer.
The components within the machine are not communicating, example, the main processor is not seeing the motor running at the right speed, The network board is not communicating with the main processor.
You can remove the covers, MACHINE UN PLUGGED, and disconnect and reconnect plugs and connectors.
You can try going on Xerox.com and downloading and uploading to your printer the Firmware,( AKA Printers internal software) and eliminate any software corruption that may exist in the printer itself.
If you can, make a note of any codes displayed. If you scroll through your menus, you will find a section of fault codes.
If you would like, list them, post them here and I will look them up and give you a more reasoned idea of the problem.

I suspect the machine is on a network and the driver is installed on the server. Your workstations driver properties are probably not the same. i have seen this problem quite a few times and its always been down to configuration and not a fault of the printer. Basically a printer prints what it is sent and to where it is sent.

Good luck

Please help. The device prints once and then stops printing until restarted. This process continues between every print job. The message printed out from the printer is as follows: ERROR:...
This is a corrupted Postscript error.
Possible solutions are, reload up to date driver and/or firmware. Go to Xerox website address below for drivers and firmware.
http://www.support.xerox.com/support/phaser-4500/downloads/engb.html?operatingSystem=winxp&fileLanguage=en_GB
This could also be a program specific problem, try printing from another software package.
Finally, you could try an NVRAM reset. Go to 'Troubleshooting', 'Service Tools', 'Reset NVRAM'. WARNING, before performing an NVRAM reset, print out a configuration page. 'Information', 'Information Pages', 'Configuration Page'. This print out will give you all the printers settings, including your network settings, which will be lost through the reset. You will need to re input them through 'Printer Setup', 'Connection Setup', 'TCPIP'.
Hope this helps.

Hi, my name is Gabriel and I have the Xerox Phaser 4510, I would like to know how to print one page for both sides? Thank you
There ia a duplex unit that you could buy and attach to the machine.
Alternatively when you select "Print"
Select the option to print pages in the range "odd pages
When the job is finished place the printed documents in the manual paper feed and select "Print" again and the option to print all the even pages.
You will also have to check a box to print pages in reverse order or vice versa depending on the order the first batch were printed.
A bit of trial and error might be required before you get the correct solution. Hope this helps??
