Public bug reported:

At home my cupsd daemon crashes all the time.

Sometimes I'm able to print a few pages but in most cases it ends-up
restarting and sending tons of crap to my printer resulting in multiple
wasted pages with non-sense characters printed on it.

I ended-up manually creating a core dump by launching it from root with:
# cupsd -f -c /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
(will attach core in post)

I tried using the default drivers for my printer then using the Samsung
provided ones with same result.  My printer is a Samsung C460W.

Here is the systemd status:
$ sudo systemctl status cups
● cups.service - CUPS Scheduler
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/cups.service; enabled; vendor preset: 
enabled)
   Active: failed (Result: core-dump) since Sat 2019-04-27 09:49:09 EDT; 12min 
ago
     Docs: man:cupsd(8)
  Process: 15292 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/cupsd -l (code=dumped, signal=ABRT)
 Main PID: 15292 (code=dumped, signal=ABRT)

avr 27 09:49:01 eclipse systemd[1]: Started CUPS Scheduler.
avr 27 09:49:02 eclipse cupsd[15292]: free(): invalid pointer
avr 27 09:49:02 eclipse systemd[1]: cups.service: Main process exited,

avr 27 09:49:09 eclipse systemd[1]: cups.service: Failed with result 
'core-dump'.
avr 27 09:49:09 eclipse systemd[1]: Stopped CUPS Scheduler.

I wasn't able to find the core dump it refers to so that's why I ended-
up generating one by invoking cupsd manually then launching ubuntu-bug
against the cups package.
