Unfortunately, there is no specific definition for the "Internal MAC transmit errors" counter. It is basically just a counter of how many frames were not able to be transmitted due to MAC sublayer problems. It is used as a catch-all counter for any transmit errors not defined by other Etherlike statistic counters.
These types of errors are typically related to a physical layer problem.
If you have ports on which you are not seeing these errors, I would suggest moving the problematic systems to these known-good ports and see if the errors follow the system. If so, you should try swapping cables and updating the NIC drivers.
