In gnome-fallback, both indicator-printers-service and gsd-printer are running as part of the session.
larsu in IRC suggested the following workaround:
> (11:36:40 μμ) larsu: alkisg, yep, gsd-printer shouldn't be running
> (11:43:19 μμ) larsu: cool, set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.print-notifications.active to false
I did that, and after reboot [*] I got a different printer icon and no messages about the "Error: connecting-to-device" (and no notification about the job being completed either).
So the problem that remains is to set that setting to false by default in the gnome-fallback session.
[*] the reboot was necessary because when I tried powering on my printer right after the setting change, I got an apport window about a gnome-settings-daemon crash.
