Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-cups-manager
If cups-pdf fails to print, the user isn't notified.
Steps to reproduce:
1) With cups-pdf installed, cause cups-pdf to fail
2) Try to print using the PDf printer
3) Notice that the printer applet pops up and then goes away quickly.
3b) Also notice that there's no print job remaining in the queue.
What should happen:
3) Printer applet should stay up. Popup notification should appear and say
'PDF printer failed to print'. Print job should remain in queue.
My first assumption was that the print job had completed, so I went
looking for the file. It was only after not finding the file and then
going into System->Administration->Printing, that I noticed that the
state for the printer was 'Idle - /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf
failed'.
