You may be thinking of a limit on the number of files that can be
contained within one lpr print job.
Data file names must follow the same pattern as the control file name, and
have the format dfXnumberhost. The X can be
in the range A-Za-z, allowing at most 52 data files for a job.
By default, the number of jobs per queue is 999.
The job number is usually a 3 digit value. However, in systems where a
large number of jobs are spooled and need to be
kept for printing at scheduled times, this can lead to problems. The
longnumber option will use 6 digit job numbers. This
must be used with care when operating with non-LPRng software.
The latest version of LPRng should be stable enough to load up two queues.
With only two queues, LPRng isn't going to stress the server, unless you
stress LPRng.

Subject: LPRng: Problems with loads of printjobs?
Hi, I think I recall a message about a certain version of LPRng only
handling up to 50 Printjobs/queue. What Version of LPRng is stable enough
to
have up to 1000 jobs in 2 queues,
and how does it affect the workload of a machine (K62/500)?
Thanks
Dietmar
