[cups.general] is it possible to offload more than one job at a time to an ipp queue?

I am trying to send multiple print jobs to an ipp printer on a remote
server and have them completely transfered off of the local machine
while they wait to print.  The problem is that the cups client only
sends one job at a time to the ipp queue - one job shows a state of
"processing" until it is done printing, and any subsequent jobs
printed on the client just wait on the local machine with a state of
"pending" until they move to "processing" one by one as each job
finishes printing.

I have searched for half a day but can't find any documentation to
determine if this behavior is expected and if there is any way to
override it through configuration. Any suggestions would be
appreciated.
