Thank Giorgio, ok so it seems gnome-settings-daemon get a signal telling it to stop, that's weird.

Could you try to run it in gdb (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace) and get extra informations about the issue?

The steps are described on the wiki, you basically should:
- enable the ddeb source for oneiric-proposed
- install gnome-settings-daemon-dbgsym
- run gdb and attach it to gnome-settings-daemon (see "already running programs" on the wiki), do steps until 4. ie "continue"
- then try to print
- get the info from "6" (i.e "backtrace full")
- copy the logs there

Did you start getting those issues with an update recently or do you have them since you are on Oneiric?

Hi, the log from gdb in in attachment
I have this issue since I'm on Oneiric. I never had this problem on Natty.

could you follow the instructions in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/893676/comments/2 and add the infos there? do you use a custom ppd?

Ok, i'll go to put the infos on bug #893676. I think is the same issue, because seems that the crash happens when a notification of low toner level is shown. And yes, I use a custom ppd for my Lexmark C530 printer because with the one in ubuntu some settings are missing (for example, there is not option to force black and white printing)
