The print scheduler will most often restart(from the begining) a job stopped during such a restart. I have also seen remote queues such as yours hang when a printer is renabled without a lpshut and lpsched following it, although this was mostly on my legacy 10.10 and 10.20 environments. These things can be real bears but persistence pays off Good Luck!
