hi Till,

here is the answer made by Matthias Clasen (id=754346):
******
The job queue is in the control-center printer panel. I don't think we need to duplicate it in the print dialog.
*******

So i does not think that upstream will made change, as it appear the request is not understood, or wrongly affected to GTK print dialog.  I'm not sure about that 'control-center printer panel', is it refering to hp-tool box or else ?
Can you explain to Matthias that usability issue, and request a better design to replace the now dispatched features ?

Title:
  job queue not populated and nothing listed

Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in hplip package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  when a printing task is started, it happens that some old jobs are
  still in job queue and so are printed first instead of the wanted one.

  Opening the hplip toolbox, the old jobs are not listed, so its
  impossible to know about it/them and their numbers. And there is no
  option to blindly emptying that queue. Such working feature is really
  needed.

  But if the user ask for opening a task into that hplip toolbox, that
  time the job is displayed with its path. That is expected, but the
  real pain is about these old jobs not listed, not shown and fully
  unknown.

  On the other side cups is also fully ignoring to list & display these
  old jobs: this is also fully awaited.
