Bug Description
With an up to date (as of 20 Sept) Oneiric beta, I am receiving several error/warning notifications when I try to print. Printing actually works - that's not the issue. But on the way to a successful printing, I see
- "Printer may not be connected" warning message
- "Printer error - cups-remote-
I am running an upgrade from 11.04, with the same printers. Prior to the upgrade I didn't receive either of these messages, and feel this is a regression.

The message "Printer may not be connected" is generated by gnome-settings- daemon and handled in bug 842768 (patch submitted). The message "Printer error - cups-remote- processing" is generated by system- config- printer (job viewer applet) and I have uploaded a package with the notification being suppressed (real fix would be to improve the messages, but we are after UI string freeze). The system- config- printer package with the messages suppressed is waiting in the approval queue due to beta2 freeze. It will make it into the archives shortly after the release of beta2 on Thursday.
