hpqd_cdlbl_subtype_formats_fi.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like hpqd_cdlbl_subtype_formats_fi.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like FileCoAuth.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. HP Photosmart Essential) could share the same hpqd_cdlbl_subtype_formats_fi.dll file, saving valuable memory allocation, therefore making your computer run more efficiently.
Unfortunately, what makes DLL files so convenient and efficient, also makes them extremely vulnerable to problems. If something happens to a shared DLL file, either it goes missing or gets corrupted in some way, it can generate a "runtime" error message. Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these errors are triggered when hpqd_cdlbl_subtype_formats_fi.dll is attempted to be loaded either when HP Photosmart Essential is starting up, or in some cases already running.
