Same here; but not always.
I don't know the solution, but I thought I let you know that you're not
the only one seeing this. I'm using FreeBSD 4.8 with CUPS 1.1.18.

In a desperate mood, I stop and start cupsd as root.
Sometimes this seems to solve the problem.

However, something is indeed not right here.
