Just a heads up.  (I am unsure if this deserves a separate new bug
report). Last night I updated from Ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04 LTS.  I have
the same issue as the original poster.  Just to reiterate:

1. This printer (The HP Laserjet 3600n) was working normally in Ubuntu
11.10, although I don't remember which driver it had chosen.

2. Upon update to 12.04, all print jobs would print 2 pages.  The first
was empty, the second contained this error in the upper left:

PCL XL error

Subsystem: KERNEL
Error: IllegalTag
Operator: 0x45
Position: 7

3. Upon checking the driver (Right-click the printer, select properties,
click Make and Model), it recommended to use the "pxljr" variety under
HP Laserjet 3600.

4. Upon selecting one of the other options (either "hplip" or "hpcups")
under either the "3600" or "3600n" variety, the colour is always
incorrect, including the test page.  Specifically:

The "C" is printed in pink; the "M" is printed in brown; the "R" is
printed in green; the 4th color circle (bottom right) is a pale blue
outline of a circle with no contents; the "K" is black; the "B" is a
different black with a bluish tint; and the final test mark is a series
of 4 10% pie-pieces ranging from dark gray to medium-light gray.

Printing an image that displays in medium blues on my screen comes out
red/pink/purple/white.

Please advise as to whether I should report a new bug.  I am not well-
versed in bug reporting.
