I could not copy/paste that notice and had to manually copy it from system-config-printer, but I assure you the semicolon is there! I do not know if it appears in the error message on screen. I just printed two pages and there was no error message?
The above command produces:

This is one of several printers on my wireless lan. It should not be low on toner although I am not certain that it isn't indicating so prematurely. I usually fill my own cartridges but this happens to be one I bought new several months ago. This particular printer has only a USB input and uses an D-Link interface to Ethernet connected to a gigabit switch.
Thanks to all.
