Printing multiple files results in hold

Fedora 17, fully up to date.  Shared printer from an F17 server.  The
printer itself is a network printer using IPP.  Tried with two different
printers, with the same result.

Using lp or lpr to print several plain text files with a single command
seems to result in the print job being held in the queue.  Releasing the
job with system-config-printer results in the job vanishing into thin
air.  Printing the files one at a time works as expected.

Has anyone else seen this behavior?
