If you press cancel in the last mail merge dialog that appears when printing to a printer via file->print, the job is still executed. Here is how to reproduce: 0) I assume that a linux system is required (with cups printer system), since there are some special treatments there. 1) download the test documents from #93236 to you local drive 2) open the attached mail merge document (Sample_document_mailmerge.odt) 3) Use "tools->mail merge wizard/insertAdressBlock->choose different datasource" (translated from German UI) to register the attached simple datasource (einsBisNeun.ods). Cancel Mail merge wizard after that. 4) Use "file->print", "yes", for mail merge printing. Select "print to printer" and press "OK". 5) Now there comes the "last dialog" in which you can chosse the printer and do some settings. Press "Cancel" here. --> there's a small windows that shows the mail merge progress. This window now still remains and counts from 1 up to 9. The mail merge still was started, even I it should be cancelled.
Fixed here https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/18302 only with cups want solved in lo-5-0 too
