Not really long ago, but it is not a serious problem any more.
By chance, I had this error just yesterday, after months of not seeing

I'm using Karmic, fully updated to 26/01/10.
The 'Too many failed...' message is no more, but the bug is still there, I
click 'print' on evince, the little printer icons shows up on the notification

Thats the error in /var/log/cups/error_log:

evince sometimes yield error Error
Hi,
I'm a little confused over this issue.
Firstly, we never managed to find where the bug was, nor do we know
whether it was fixed by someone in the first place. Shouldn't we do a
little more intensive testing to see if this is still an issue? If we
had actually found the faulty code and fixed
Every software has its developing process, and this includes finding bugs and
fixing the bugs.
While a software has a bug, packagers (and/or developer) need to look for
alternatives, and publish software that does what it says.

Didn't want to chime in but few of these comments doesn't really help to

The terminal command:

Can anyone reproduce this in Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic)?
Support for CUPS authorization was only recently added to GTK+ in version
2.17.0 (first distributed in Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic). Before this if CUPS requested
authorization GTK+ would repeatedly connect until Too many failed attempts
would occur.
Once again, I would like to propose an emergency fix for this before
Karmic comes out. I am no developer, but it appears to be as simple as
finding the function that is the equivalent of bool
CheckForTooManyFailedAttempts() and hack it to always return false.
Whatever code is checking for some
Definitely not a CUPS bug, as CUPS does not register any mouse motion.
This must be somewhere in the GUI. Most probably a problem of GTK.

Just a quick idea: Wouldn't it be easiest to just completely disable the
