Public bug reported:

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/indicator-printers/indicator-printers-service

Printer is Epson TM-T88V Thermal Roll Receipt printer

indicator-printers-service
Description:	Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS
Release:	16.04

indicator-printers:
  Geïnstalleerd: 0.1.7+15.04.20150220-0ubuntu2
  Kandidaat:     0.1.7+15.04.20150220-0ubuntu2
  Versietabel:
 *** 0.1.7+15.04.20150220-0ubuntu2 500
        500 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

What I Expected to Happen:
One Dialog box, and if there is a reminder just refocus the already opened dialog box

What really happens:
100's of dialog boxes are opened until the computer runs out of memory and becomes very slow
Only way out is to killall indicator-printers-service

See screenshot
