I'm not sure about that particular plugin, but there is an
acknowledged bug in CUPS that causes it to hang when it
receives an invalid URL; eg, "GET /..a HTTP/1.1". The bug is
described at:

  http://www.cups.org/str.php?L1042

and has been fixed in 1.1.23. Upgrading resolved the hangs I
was experiencing.
