Hi Fule,

 

Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!

I see by your post that you are getting a "PCL XL Error" when printing a PDF.
I will be happy to help you.

 

I would update the printer's firmware to resolve this issue.

 

HP LaserJet Pro M1536dnf Multifunction Printer Drivers.

Select your operating system, click next, click the link for firmware.

 

Please let me know if you need further assistance.

 

Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
Have a nice day!

Hi Fule,

 

Sorry that didn't work for you.

 

These following steps have worked with previous printers, which you could try.

 

Go to start/devices and printers/right click on the printer/left click printing preferences.
Click on the Advanced  tab/click + beside document options/click + beside printer features.
Then click on printer data optimization.
Change it to optimized for text & vector instead of auto.

 

Restart the computer and try printing again.

 

Adobe 10 can also be the cause of some PCL XL error messages when PDF's are printed. 

Going back to Adobe 9 can sometimes resolve this issue.

 

What version are you using?

 

Hope this helps.

 

Thank You. :generic:
