I realize PreCheck isn't guaranteed but is this a common occurrence (to lose it on a reprint)?

Not a huge deal as I still had access the SP lane -- took ~10 minutes to get through rather than ~3 minutes in PreCheck -- but it was irritating hearing people in the PreCheck lane (which was in close proximity) confused on why they need to keep their shoes on. ;-)

It's a known issue with some of Delta's BP printers (for example, at ATL Terminal F). If you were to go up to PreCheck and scan the boarding pass, it would be accepted, though the PreCheck guards probably wouldn't let you enter the queue to find out.
