Bug Description

1) Ubuntu 19.10
2) system-config-printer 1.5.11
3) system-config-printer detected my HP Laserjet 1020. I printed a page, and it was added to the print queue. The page did not print and the print job disappeared from the print queue. I downloaded foo2zjs.tar.gz from http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/ and followed the instructions. I was able to get my printer to successfully print pages. When my HP Laserjet 1020 is out of paper. The green light on the printer changes to a blinking orange light. An "Out of Paper" message with a retry button, should have been displayed.
4) An "Out of Paper" message with a retry button, was NOT displayed.

Changed in system-config-printer (Ubuntu):
importance: Undecided → Low

Note that the affected printers are a small series of LaserJet printers from around a decade ago, so therefore we would not develop a distro-specific fix for this.
