CentOS - Jun 2015 - Centos7 - Mate - Zombie printer icon remains after printing

Hello All, 

I have the problem described in this bug: 

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1116756 

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.

When you have this issue do you check the cups log for the printer
in question to see if it indicates that the job has completed? It
might be that the cups doesn't think the job is done. Also, have you
tried checking the status of, and/or stopping/starting, the
cups.service to see if that clears it? 

Almost all my printing is "print-to-pdf", and I don't get have
this
problem.

You can get rid of it with this command:

killall mate-panel
