This is still present in Precise (at least Printer Applet spamming about "may not be connected" every second)

After printing to one of these auto-listed printers, the document was processing indefinitely, and worse, the Printer Applet keeps on notifying that the Printer '<printer name>' may not be connected (see attached screenshot). The KDE Printer Applet is unresponsive, but I can delete the print job from the cups web interface. Even after deleting the print job the notifications persist. However, interestingly, when I try to get more information on this printer in the cups web interface, the link refers to a remote cups server. If i print with the same printer, but in stead a manually configured entry in cups, it works fine. ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.04 MachineType: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
