On a linux server we have create lpd print queues for Thinprint printers with device_uri like this:
lpd://tfcx-prt/BE-WHS-01#tcx-belgium-hp1.be.tmk.com:30

But after some time or after restarting cups the device uri is truncated just before the #-symbol. After that printing doesn't work anymore. I see the following error in error_log:
PID 13746 (/usr/lib/cups/backend/lpd) stopped with status 1!

Please help.
