Beyond some built-in security, the printer is unaware of what it is printing.
The application or software you are using might not be able to translate the code to something the printer understands.
Snip (targeted screenshot) and save the snipped content as an Image.
Next,
Open in an appropriate app or software for your Operating System / version and print the image file.
Stuck with PDF file?
Print the PDF file as an Image.

Open the PDF file on your device screen (computer, tablet, phone)
