Public bug reported:

A job was not printing because the printer was out of paper, so I
decided to move it to another printer.

I opened the Document Print Status window, right clicked on the job,
selected Move To,  and briefly the list of alternate printers showed,
then blanked, and then the whole dialogue froze. (This was repeatable.)

Unfortunately Ubuntu has a regrettable property that if an application
freezes when a menu is open, the whole system is unusable. A reboot is
the only way to get out (as far as I can tell), so this bug is
particularly irritating (though the underlying bug of the system
freezing is more irritating).
