Morning, I am getting this seemingly random Unicode Decode error and can't really pin point where to go for a fix. Some days I get this error on a printer once, other days mulitple times. The only way to get the printer back from a 'paused' or 'stopped' state, that I have found is to clear out the log and delete / reinstall the printer. (I made a script on the server to quickly regenerate a cups / pykota printer). Below is a log snippet from /var/log/cups/error_log and having the cups error log setting on debug.
