Today 2022-04-09, I also saw this on my Rocky Linux (updated) after a
reboot after a crash, but "systemctl stop cups" and then "systemctl
start cups" as root, resolved the issue. Sorry I have no more info than
that. ; cups-2.2.6-40.el8.x86_64, Linux 4.18.0-348.12.2.el8_5.x86_64 #1

Title:
  Removing document files spam from cups

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Since my server (running xenial) updated to cups 2.1.3-4ubuntu0.9 last
  night the CUPS logs have had a considerable number of messages from
  cupsd stating "Removing document files" - about 3 or 4 a second
  constantly. Stopping the cups service stops the log-spam, and starting
  it again immediately resumes it (after a few hundred "Loading from
  cache..." messages). I've tried removing document files from the cache
  (there were a couple of ancient ones lying around - it's not a heavily
  used printer), but this made little difference to the symptoms.

  I'm pretty confident this is due to the upgrade as:

  1. the spam in the logs starts immediately after CUPS reloads (after
  the upgrade)

  2. looking at the diff for 2.1.3-4ubuntu0.9 it does seem to be
  fiddling with things related to job clean-up (e.g. cupsdUpdateJobs and
  cupsdCleanJobs in scheduler/job.c)

  If I can provide any further information, do let me know!
