Same here with two different network printers on Linux Mint 17 Qiana XFCE desktop. The xfce4-panel -r command in a terminal window removes it OK though.

The printer was working ever, but now (maybe after the upgrade to saucy), the printer icon freezes after a network print but printing is working. Now I could reproduce this at a clean xubuntu vm with the current upgrades and the same happens again. I think that is may be related to cups. Cups error log is clear. Xubuntu 13.10 64Bit Kernel 3.11.0-18 UPDATE: I append the "apport-collect" from a clean xubuntu 14.04 64bit vm, where I reproduced this bug. I hope this can be fixed, it is annoying. Thanks. --- ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 CupsErrorLog: CurrentDesktop: XFCE DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-05-04 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140416.2) Lpstat: device for HP-Deskjet-5550: socket://192.168.178.1:9100 Lsusb: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 80ee:0021 VirtualBox USB Tablet Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub MachineType: innotek GmbH VirtualBox Package: system-config-printer (not installed) Papersize: a4 PpdFiles: HP-Deskjet-5550: HP Deskjet 5550, hpcups 3.14.3 ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-24-generic root=UUID=4eb73dcc-c1a8-4f1a-9889-793e0efd6c43 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-24.46-generic 3.13.9 Tags: trusty Uname: Linux 3.13.0-24-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True dmi.bios.date: 12/01/2006 dmi.bios.vendor: innotek GmbH dmi.bios.version: VirtualBox dmi.board.name: VirtualBox dmi.board.vendor: Oracle Corporation dmi.board.version: 1.2 dmi.chassis.type: 1 dmi.chassis.vendor: Oracle Corporation dmi.modalias: dmi:bvninnotekGmbH:bvrVirtualBox:bd12/01/2006:svninnotekGmbH:pnVirtualBox:pvr1.2:rvnOracleCorporation:rnVirtualBox:rvr1.2:cvnOracleCorporation:ct1:cvr: dmi.product.name: VirtualBox dmi.product.version: 1.2 dmi.sys.vendor: innotek GmbH To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/system-config-printer/+bug/1291075/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
