In Ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic), there are two packages that can be involved in
gnome printer norifications: gnome-settings-daemon and unity-settings-
daemon. The latter package seems to be a fork of the former, for Unity
use I suppose.
These two packages come with a printer notification plugin. The one of
gnome-settings-daemon is /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-printer and
the other is /usr/lib/unity-settings-daemon/usd-printer.
I found that if the gnome-flashback session (a.ka. "Gnome Classic") is
used, the printer notification plugin involved is usd-printer, from the
unity-settings-daemon package. I guess that gsd-printer is used in a
Gnome Shell session (I don't use it so I can test my guessing).
So, to remove the connecting-to-printer false error message, I think the
safest approach is to patch both packages, just by adding the lines:
if (g_str_has_prefix (reason, "connecting-to-device"))
return TRUE;
to the reason_is_blacklisted() static function in gsd-print-
notifications-manager.c.
A patch is attached for the gnome-settings-daemon package and I'll also
fill a bug report with a patch for the unity-settings-daemon package.
