I also have this problem on a Samsung ML-2855 ND remote shared printer on 
Ubuntu 18.04 server
Using Ubuntu 20.04. When printing pdf file using lp or printing from Chrome 
browser the printer turns on paper out signal and cannot be cleared without 
turning off printer and turning back on again. Another printer, HP Photosmart 
works perfectly with lp and browser. Tried removing and reinstalling CUPS which 
found printer, but paper out bug still persists with printing from terminal. 
Seems a "paper out" signal is being sent which is a control character for the 
Samsung but not for the HP.

Title:
  Permanent "Printer-out-of-paper" message.

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: cups

  This probably has to do with CUPS. Version: 1.4.1- 4ubuntu2.4 (latest
  on Karmic).

  I was printing a document when the printer was out of paper and got a
  message that "The printer is out of paper". I went to reload it and
  clicked resume on the printer and printing carried on normally.

  From this point on, the message "The printer is out of paper" is permanently 
stuck on the printer. 
  - Every time i print, i get the message "The printer is out of paper", but 
the printing occurs without errors. 
  - The configuration tool (system-config-printer 1.1.12) shows the printer 
with the red error sign. When viewing the properties of said printer, in the 
"Ink/Toner Levels" section, i have the "Status Message":  "Printer 
HP-Officejet-Pro-k550 is out of paper". If i click refresh then i get a "CUPS 
server error": "There was an error during the CUPS operation: 
'client-error-document-format-not-supported'." (Not sure this is relevant). 

  
  Removing and reinstalling the printer fixes this.
