Well, I know what "caused" the issue, but i'm not sure the best way to fix it.  I had "PreserveJobHistory Off"  so basically it would purge immediately  turning it On seems to have fixed the hang, but i don't want to keep the jobs forever or set a MaxJobs.  Anyone have a bright idea?

It still prints and doesn't show up in the queue in CUPS any longer, just the client sometimes seems to be "clueless"
