Dear Till, I am so sorry to trouble you that we did not described the phenomenon clearly. The notification [Waiting for job to complete] is not displayed at Mate's desktop, but displayed in CUPS page (localhost:631) -> [Printers] tab -> [Status] column. *Please refer to the attachment image for details.
By the way, we have confirmed that this problem does not be occured on Ubuntu 18.04LTS. So we judge this is a CUPS/OS issue.Could you help us to confirm it again? Thank you in advance! ** Attachment added: "The notification [Waiting for job to complete] is displayed in CUPS page (localhost:631) -> [Printers] tab -> [Status] column." https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1656790/+attachment/5212218/+files/Ubuntu16.04_printer_status.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to system-config-printer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1656790 Title: print-notifications: Don't show error for job in progress Status in ubuntu-mate: Invalid Status in mate-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in system-config-printer package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Running Ubuntu MATE 16.04.1 LTS Every single time I print something, I get an error notification. Unfortunly, I'm running a Norwegian desktop, so this will be a translation of what I suppose the notification says on an English desktop: Printer error Printer 'NAME':'cups-waiting-for-job-completed' It is a bit annoying, but it disappears after a couple of seconds, when the print job is done. After a bit of Googling, I found this is a known error from earlier, with gnome-settings-daemon. I guess the fix never have been included in mate-settings-daemon ? This is the bug in Red Hat for the same problem: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1207154 This is the patch for gnome-settings-daemon from May 20 2015 : https://mail.gnome.org/archives/commits-list/2015-May/msg03447.html The 'cups-waiting-for-job-completed' is a notification in Cups, which should not be ignored by gnome-settings-daemon.
