Hello, my Brother Printer (HL-L23200) will not print PDFs opened with Adobe Acrobat DC. I have tried on both of my laptops and I wonder if there is something I can do? I tried restarting the printer, the laptops, updating the software. Sometimes I get a note saying the printer memory is full. I called the Brother customer service and they said it was on the PDF end (I can print other documents, Word, etc). Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I have the Brother HL-5340D and Windows 10 pro 64 bit. I can print everything else just fine. I open adobe Acrobat DC and try to print. Nothing happens and Adobe causes the printer to be disconnected. I have to remove the printer and reinstall the printer. I tried to Print as Image, same thing. Adobe disconnects the printer and nothing prints. Tell me one thing do I have to pay a monthly fee to print a PDF document.

I downloaded and installed Windows 10 update 2004 and now able to print the pdf document. I used the Print as image option.
