You have been subscribed to a public bug:
The normal print dialog doesn't show the correct status for printers
instead it displays some random characters.
Firefox and Thunderbird show the correct status which in my case would
be:
Printer 'Dell-5350dn-DKinvoice' has no toner left.
Printer 'Dell-5350dn-white' has no toner left.
The characters I see in the print dialogs for eog or gedit for example
change with every mouse move. It doesn't matter which window has the
focus, the characters constantly change when moving the mouse.
My setup is I have one pysical DELL 5350dn printer with 4 paper trays and to
access them quickly I've installed 4 printers with the defaults sets to the
individual trays.
However out of those 4 only two show those messages, the other two don't show
any status at all. Also in Friefox the other two don't say that it is out of
toner.
I've attached a screenshot of the dialog.
Not sure if this is related to this bug or if it is seperate bug. For
the printers with this status the Firefox/ Thunderbird print dialog
doesn't display any printer icon. It should be the printer with the
yellow/orange triangle with the "!" in it.
