Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) over HTTPS Transport Binding
and the 'ipps' URI Scheme
Abstract
This document defines the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) over HTTPS
transport binding and the corresponding 'ipps' URI scheme, which is
used to designate the access to the network location of a secure IPP
print service or a network resource managed by such a service.
This document defines an alternate IPP transport binding to that
defined in the original IPP URL Scheme (RFC 3510), but this document
does not update or obsolete RFC 3510.
This document updates RFCs 2910 and 2911.
