First, run the following commands to check whether your system-config- printer got completely upgraded:
dpkg -l | grep 1.5.7+2016 dpkg -l | grep 1.5.9+2017 dpkg -l | grep system-config-printer Is this the case? If so, please log out and log in again to assure that there are no stale processes in your running desktop. If you still get the notifications, reboot. If you still get the notification also after this, it seems that they do not come from system-config-printer, but perhaps from Mate's desktop. -- 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.
