Hi,
I have just noticed this :

So long, printing menu, we hardly knew you

In Ubuntu 12.04, a printing status menu appears whenever any print jobs are in progress. Unfortunately, it’s not that noticeable.

So in 12.10, we plan to replace it with a temporary printing item in the launcher. This will correspond to a minimized window listing your recent print jobs. You can close it when done, or just ignore it, as you see fit.

Why don't use the "blue color blinking" (as well as the "job started" and "job complete" notifications) when a printing task is ongoing instead of using some space in the launcher ?
To me, this would be consistent with the output notification logic : for sound, you get a notification of what's going on ("next song"..., as well as the blue coor blinking).
