For me it works exactly as described by Michael Sweet:
--------------------------------------------------------------
root at host# head -n3 /var/cache/cups/job.cache
# Job cache file for CUPS v1.4.6
# Written by cupsd on 2011-06-08 14:06
NextJobId 123

root at host# rccups stop
Shutting down cupsd                        done

root at host# rm -r /var/spool/cups

root at host# rm /var/cache/cups/job.cache

root at host# rccups start
Starting cupsd                             done

root at host# echo Hello | lp -d testy
request id is testy-1 (0 file(s))

root at host# head -n3 /var/cache/cups/job.cache
# Job cache file for CUPS v1.4.6
# Written by cupsd on 2011-06-22 14:37
NextJobId 2

root at host# find /var/spool/cups
/var/spool/cups
/var/spool/cups/tmp
/var/spool/cups/c00001
