CentOS7 – Mate – Zombie Printer Icon Remains After Printing

CentOS 7 Comments

Hello All,

I have the problem described in this bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id16756

It is also descibed in some detail here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1264811

After printing, the print icon stays in the system tray until I logout. The bugzilla says there is a fix for Fedora21.

Does anybody know how to get this fixed for C7?

Thanks very much.

Greetings, Johan

  • Ah, I’ve seen that too. Not only does it remain there, it no longer works, i.e., you can’t open it, you can’t kill it, it just sits there, inert.

    I’d like to see a fix for this also.

    However, since Mate isn’t an official CentOS desktop, you’ll probably need to post a request with the EPEL maintainers.

  • No, I haven’t thought to check the log. but the job comes out of the printer, as do subsequent ones even though the icon remains
    “stuck” on the upper panele.
