(In reply to comment #3) > When loglevel set to Debug, CUPS writes the following lines to error_log many > times during shutdown: I had the impression that cupsd tries to pull out all remaining jobs in the queue, but am not not expert in cupsd nor do remember why I had the impression.
I also had this problem. Then I found out that cups had still registered a job for a printer which was not there anymore. Apparently, each time at shutdown, cups tried to contact this printer (which led to my whole machine not shutting down properly anymore...). Anyway, removing the job via the cups administration page solved the issue for me.
CHANGES IN CUPS V1.4.5: - The scheduler would restart jobs while shutting down (STR #3679) Closing as fixed, please reopen if it's still an issue for you with >=cups-1.4.5.
