Does mean you are using a text-only system or that you're using a
different desktop, e.g KDE or XFCE?

That's odd, but there is presumably some Gnome-specific printing code,
if only to put the printer notification on the menu bar when there are
documents in the queue. At least, I assume KDE has another way of doing
that and XFCE probably lacks it. Disclaimer: I don't use KDE and my only
XFCE exposure is when I'm using VNC. I realise this isn't much direct
use, but it may give you some ideas on where to look. It also sounds
like something that needs following up on Ubuntu forums.
