Assigning to all packagers collectively, since there is no registered maintainer for lxcontrol.

Comment 4 Lewis Smith 2017-04-20 06:45:59 CEST

Clarification re M6 to date.
Applies to all 3 Live ISOs: Gnome, Plasma, LXDE.
Does *not* apply to Classic ISO, Lexmark pkgs are not installed.

4 applications are involved, all with individual menu entries:
- Align heads
- Clean heads
- Inspect cartridges
- Hide cartridges
These all throw up a doubled terminal window; tiled for Gnome, Plasma; superimposed for XFCE.

The host application 'Lexmark printer manager' is OK, and has buttons for the functions above. So the solution seems simply to *not have menu entries* for the offending things.

Summary: Lexmark headalign application shows terminal windows => Lexmark applications show terminal windows

The 'Lexmark printer manager' is a different application, and only claims to support a limited number of printer models.

It seems fairly easy to fix these applications, although as I don't have a Lexmark printer, I can't test that they really work.
