I suspect this happens with the regular lpt also.  I have often had
a job sent to our apple laser writer and still have unprinted pages
and lpq reports no entries. Then you submit another job, the printer
is reset and the unprinted pages are lost.  I kept looking in lpd
for this problem and now see that it may be related to two separate
opens.
