I am not familiar with Mate and so I do not know whether something
concerning these notifications is specific to Mate. I also do not know
whether there are any undesired print status pop-ups on Mate's desktop.

I only know that after the system-config-printer fix any undesired pop-
ups disappeared on standard Ubuntu Linux.

For the CUPS web interface as how by your screen shot I do not see the
status messages as a problem. The show which printers are busy doing a
job (did they actually do a job when you have taken the screenshot?).
They are not marked as errors and they are not annoying pop-ups which
interrupt the user's workflow.

If they are not there anymore in newer Mate/Ubuntu/CUPS versions then
the upstream developers of CUPS have done changes.

Note that the changes in system-config-printer only eliminate annoying
desktop pop-ups, they do not change anything in the web admin interface
of CUPS. So recommend the system-config-printer upgrade only if the user
is complaining about desktop pop-ups. Doing the update does not cause
any known regression or side effect, so updating is no problem.
