For what it's worth.

Have my networked HP Printer set up using the "onboard tools".
Error started occurring at boot-up after the latest round of updates.

This seems to be random on startup with my HP dv7-6135dx and Acer C710.

Thank you for your report!

However, processing it in order to get sufficient information for the
developers failed (it does not generate a useful symbolic stack trace). This
might be caused by some outdated packages which were installed on your system
at the time of the report:

libgnutls-deb0-28 version 3.3.8-3ubuntu2 required, but 3.3.8-3ubuntu3 is available
libdbus-1-3 version 1.8.12-1ubuntu3 required, but 1.8.12-1ubuntu4 is available

Please upgrade your system to the latest package versions. If you still
encounter the crash, please file a new report.

Thank you for your understanding, and sorry for the inconvenience!

I am running a fresh install of Xubuntu 15.04 and I am wirelessly connected to an HP LaserJet Pro 1102w with out-of-the-box drivers. I installed the beta a week ago and this is the first time I have seen this bug, so it is extremely random. My guess, and it is really just a guess, is that CUPS is trying to check the printer before network services are available.
