This seems to be a some kind of desktop/laptop power/resource saving feature that does not take Web UI to the account. CUPS will immediately start up again if I open the printing dialog or something.
When I read Stephan's error log as well as my own, it reads: "I [30/Aug/2016:08:42:33 +0200] Printer sharing is off and there are no jobs pending, will restart on demand. I [30/Aug/2016:08:42:33 +0200] Scheduler shutting down normally." Maybe some kind of xinetd setup would make it possible to shut CUPS down but start it up when one tries to access the web UI. Please do not expire this bug, that is not a solution. and Stephan has provided the requested error log. WONTFIX would be a better solution if this is the way it is intended to work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1598300 Title: cups hang after a while To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1598300/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
