Printer quits printing.

I am using Fedora 10 with a parallel HP 1320 laserjet.
When I send print jobs from my software package to the printer, the jobs hang
with the status of processing. I have to restart cups to get the jobs to print.
This happens intermittently, sometimes once a day, sometimes 10-15 times a day.
I can not find any source for this problem.
Here is the error_log from 2 print jobs that hung, then I restarted the cups server and it printer....
