3. Have an operator set the date and time using a web
administrative interface
4. Get the date and time from incoming HTTP requests, though the
problems of spoofing need to be considered. Perhaps comparing
several HTTP requests could reduce the chances of spoofing.
5. Internal date time clock battery driven.
6. Query "http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/cgi-bin/timer.pl"
4.4 Printer Description Attributes
4.4.1 queued-job-count (integer(0:MAX))
4.4.1.1 Why is "queued-job-count" RECOMMENDED (Issue 1.14)?
The reason that "queued-job-count" is RECOMMENDED, is that some
clients look at that attribute alone when summarizing the status of a
list of printers, instead of doing a Get-Jobs to determine the number
of jobs in the queue. Implementations that fail to support the
"queued-job-count" will cause that client to display 0 jobs when
there are actually queued jobs.
We would have made it a REQUIRED Printer attribute, but some
implementations had already been completed before the issue was
raised, so making it a SHOULD was a compromise.
4.4.1.2 Is "queued-job-count" a good measure of how busy a printer is
(Issue 1.15)?
The "queued-job-count" is not a good measure of how busy the printer
is when there are held jobs. A future registration could be to add a
"held-job-count" (or an "active-job-count") Printer Description
attribute if experience shows that such an attribute (combination) is
needed to quickly indicate how busy a printer really is.
4.4.2 printer-current-time (dateTime)
A Printer implementation MAY support this attribute by obtaining the
date and time by any number of implementation-dependent means at
startup or subsequently. Examples include:
1. an internal date time clock,
2. from the operator at startup using the console,
3. from an operator using an administrative web page,
4. from HTTP headers supplied in client requests,
5. use HTTP to query "http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/cgi-bin/timer.pl"
6. from the network, using NTP [RFC1305] or DHCP option 32
[RFC2132] that returns the IP address of the NTP server.
If an implementation supports this attribute by obtaining the current
time from the network (at startup or later), but the time is not
available, then the implementation MUST return the value of this
attribute using the out-of-band 'no-value' meaning not configured.
See the beginning of section 4.1.
Since the new "date-and-time-at-xxx" Job Description attributes refer
to the "printer-current-time", they will be covered also.
4.4.3 Printer-uri
Must the operational attribute for printer-uri match one of the
values in "printer-uri-supported"?
A forgiving printer implementation would not reject the operation.
But the implementation has its rights to reject a printer or job
operation if the operational attribute printer-uri is not a value of
the printer-uri-supported. The printer might not be improperly
configured. The request obviously reached the printer. The printer
could treat the printer-uri as the logical equivalent of a value in
the printer-uri-supported. It would be implementation dependent for
which value, and associated security policy, would apply. This does
also apply to a job object specified with a printer-uri and job-id,
or with a job-uri. See section 4.1.3 for how to compare URI's.
4.5 Empty Jobs
The IPP object model does not prohibit a job that contains no
documents. Such a job may be created in a number of ways including a
'create-job' followed by an 'add-document' that contains no data and
has the 'last-document' flag set.
An empty job is processed just as any other job. The operation that
"closes" an empty job is not rejected because the job is empty. If
no other conditions exist, other than the job is empty, the response
to the operation will indicate success. After the job is scheduled
and processed, the job state SHALL be 'completed'.
There will be some variation in the value(s) of the "job-state-
reasons" attribute. It is required that if no conditions, other than
the job being empty, exist the "job-state-reasons" SHALL include the
'completed-successfully'. If other conditions existed, the
'completed-with-warnings' or 'completed-with-errors' values may be
used.
5 Directory Considerations
5.1 General Directory Schema Considerations
The [RFC2911] document lists RECOMMENDED and OPTIONAL Printer object
attributes for directory schemas. See [RFC2911] APPENDIX E: Generic
Directory Schema.
The SLP printer template is defined in the "Definition of the Printer
Abstract Service Type v2.0" document [svrloc-printer]. The LDAP
printer template is defined in the "Internet Printing Protocol (IPP):
LDAP Schema for Printer Services" document [ldap-printer]. Both
documents systematically add "printer-" to any attribute that doesn't
already start with "printer-" in order to keep the printer directory
attributes distinct from other directory attributes. Also, instead
of using "printer-uri-supported", "uri-authentication-supported", and
"uri-security-supported", they use a "printer-xri-supported"
attribute with special syntax to contain all of the same information
in a single attribute.
5.2 IPP Printer with a DNS name
If the IPP printer has a DNS name should there be at least two values
for the printer-uri-supported attribute. One URL with the fully
qualified DNS name the other with the IP address in the URL?
The printer may contain one or the other or both. It's up to the
administrator to configure this attribute.
6 Security Considerations
The security considerations given in [RFC2911] Section 8 "Security
Considerations" all apply to this document. In addition, the
following sub-sections describes security consideration that have
arisen as a result of implementation testing.
6.1 Querying jobs with IPP that were submitted using other job
submission protocols (Issue 1.32)
The following clarification was added to [RFC2911] section 8.5:
8.5 Queries on jobs submitted using non-IPP protocols If the
device that an IPP Printer is representing is able to accept jobs
using other job submission protocols in addition to IPP, it is
RECOMMEND that such an implementation at least allow such
"foreign" jobs to be queried using Get-Jobs returning "job-id" and
"job-uri" as 'unknown'. Such an implementation NEED NOT support
all of the same IPP job attributes as for IPP jobs. The IPP
object returns the 'unknown' out-of-band value for any requested
attribute of a foreign job that is supported for IPP jobs, but not
for foreign jobs.
It is further RECOMMENDED, that the IPP Printer generate "job-id"
and "job-uri" values for such "foreign jobs", if possible, so that
they may be targets of other IPP operations, such as Get-Job-
Attributes and Cancel-Job. Such an implementation also needs to
deal with the problem of authentication of such foreign jobs. One
approach would be to treat all such foreign jobs as belonging to
users other than the user of the IPP client. Another approach
would be for the foreign job to belong to 'anonymous'. Only if
the IPP client has been authenticated as an operator or
administrator of the IPP Printer object, could the foreign jobs be
queried by an IPP request. Alternatively, if the security policy
were to allow users to query other users' jobs, then the foreign
jobs would also be visible to an end-user IPP client using Get-
Jobs and Get-Job- Attributes.
Thus IPP MAY be implemented as a "universal" protocol that
provides access to jobs submitted with any job submission
protocol. As IPP becomes widely implemented, providing a more
universal access makes sense.
7 Encoding and Transport
This section discusses various aspects of IPP/1.1 Encoding and
Transport [RFC2910].
A server is not required to send a response until after it has
received the client's entire request. Hence, a client must not
expect a response until after it has sent the entire request.
However, we recommend that the server return a response as soon as
possible if an error is detected while the client is still sending
the data, rather than waiting until all of the data is received.
Therefore, we also recommend that a client listen for an error
response that an IPP server MAY send before it receives all the data.
In this case a client, if chunking the data, can send a premature
zero-length chunk to end the request before sending all the data (and
so the client can keep the connection open for other requests, rather
than closing it). If the request is blocked for some reason, a
client MAY determine the reason by opening another connection to
query the server using Get-Printer-Attributes.
IPP, by design, uses TCP's built-in flow control mechanisms [RFC793]
to throttle clients when Printers are busy. Therefore, it is
perfectly normal for an IPP client transmitting a Job to be blocked
for a really long time. Accordingly, socket timeouts must be
avoided. Some socket implementations have a timeout option, which
specifies how long a write operation on a socket can be blocked
before it times out and the blocking ends. A client should set this
option for infinite timeout when transmitting Job submissions.
Some IPP client applications might be able to perform other useful
work while a Job transmission is blocked. For example, the client
may have other jobs that it could transmit to other Printers
simultaneously. A client may have a GUI, which must remain
responsive to the user while the Job transmission is blocked. These
clients should be designed to spawn a thread to handle the Job
transmission at its own pace, leaving the main application free to do
other work. Alternatively, single-threaded applications could use
non-blocking I/O.
Some Printer conditions, such as jam or lack of paper, could cause a
client to be blocked indefinitely. Clients may open additional
connections to the Printer to Get-Printer-Attributes, determine the
state of the device, alert a user if the printer is stopped, and let
a user decide whether to abort the job transmission or not.
In the following sections, there are tables of all HTTP headers,
which describe their use in an IPP client or server. The following
is an explanation of each column in these tables.
- the "header" column contains the name of a header
- the "request/client" column indicates whether a client sends the
header.
- the "request/ server" column indicates whether a server supports
the header when received.
- the "response/ server" column indicates whether a server sends
the header.
- the "response /client" column indicates whether a client
supports the header when received.
- the "values and conditions" column specifies the allowed header
values and the conditions for the header to be present in a
request/response.
The table for "request headers" does not have columns for responses,
and the table for "response headers" does not have columns for
requests.
The following is an explanation of the values in the "request/client"
and "response/ server" columns.
- must: the client or server MUST send the header,
- must-if: the client or server MUST send the header when the
condition described in the "values and conditions" column is
met,
- may: the client or server MAY send the header
- not: the client or server SHOULD NOT send the header. It is not
relevant to an IPP implementation.
The following is an explanation of the values in the
"response/client" and "request/ server" columns.
- must: the client or server MUST support the header,
- may: the client or server MAY support the header
- not: the client or server SHOULD NOT support the header. It is
not relevant to an IPP implementation.

7.5 Optional support for HTTP/1.0
IPP implementations consist of an HTTP layer and an IPP layer. In
the following discussion, the term "client" refers to the HTTP client
layer and the term "server" refers to the HTTP server layer. The
Encoding and Transport document [RFC2910] requires that HTTP 1.1 MUST
be supported by all clients and all servers. However, a client
and/or a server implementation may choose to also support HTTP 1.0.
This option means that a server may choose to communicate with a
(non-conforming) client that only supports HTTP 1.0. In such cases
the server should not use any HTTP 1.1 specific parameters or
features and should respond using HTTP version number 1.0.
This option also means that a client may choose to communicate with a
(non-conforming) server that only supports HTTP 1.0. In such cases,
if the server responds with an HTTP 'unsupported version number' to
an HTTP 1.1 request, the client should retry using HTTP version
number 1.0.
7.6 HTTP/1.1 Chunking
7.6.1 Disabling IPP Server Response Chunking
Clients MUST anticipate that the HTTP/1.1 server may chunk responses
and MUST accept them in responses. However, a (non-conforming) HTTP
client that is unable to accept chunked responses may attempt to
request an HTTP 1.1 server not to use chunking in its response to an
operation by using the following HTTP header:
TE: identity
This mechanism should not be used by a server to disable a client
from chunking a request, since chunking of document data is an
important feature for clients to send long documents.
7.6.2 Warning About the Support of Chunked Requests
This section describes some problems with the use of chunked requests
and HTTP/1.1 servers.
The HTTP/1.1 standard [RFC2616] requires that conforming servers
support chunked requests for any method. However, in spite of this
requirement, some HTTP/1.1 implementations support chunked responses
in the GET method, but do not support chunked POST method requests.
Some HTTP/1.1 implementations that support CGI scripts [CGI] and/or
servlets [Servlet] require that the client supply a Content-Length.
These implementations might reject a chunked POST method and return a
411 status code (Length Required), might attempt to buffer the
request and run out of room returning a 413 status code (Request
Entity Too Large), or might successfully accept the chunked request.
Because of this lack of conformance of HTTP servers to the HTTP/1.1
standard, the IPP standard [RFC2910] REQUIRES that a conforming IPP
Printer object implementation support chunked requests and that
conforming clients accept chunked responses. Therefore, IPP object
implementers are warned to seek HTTP server implementations that
support chunked POST requests in order to conform to the IPP standard
and/or use implementation techniques that support chunked POST
requests.

10. Description of the Base IPP Documents
In addition to this document, the base set of IPP documents includes:
Design Goals for an Internet Printing Protocol [RFC2567]
Rationale for the Structure and Model and Protocol for the
Internet
Printing Protocol [RFC2568]
Internet Printing Protocol/1.1: Model and Semantics [RFC2911]
Internet Printing Protocol/1.1: Encoding and Transport [RFC2910]
Mapping between LPD and IPP Protocols [RFC2569]
The "Design Goals for an Internet Printing Protocol" document takes a
broad look at distributed printing functionality, and it enumerates
real-life scenarios that help to clarify the features that need to be
included in a printing protocol for the Internet. It identifies
requirements for three types of users: end users, operators, and
administrators. It calls out a subset of end user requirements that
are satisfied in IPP/1.0 [RFC2566, RFC2565]. A few OPTIONAL operator
operations have been added to IPP/1.1 [RFC2911, RFC2910].
The "Rationale for the Structure and Model and Protocol for the
Internet Printing Protocol" document describes IPP from a high level
view, defines a roadmap for the various documents that form the suite
of IPP specification documents, and gives background and rationale
for the IETF IPP working group's major decisions.
The "Internet Printing Protocol/1.1: Model and Semantics" document
describes a simplified model with abstract objects, their attributes,
and their operations. The model introduces a Printer and a Job. The
Job supports multiple documents per Job. The model document also
addresses how security, internationalization, and directory issues
are addressed.
The "Internet Printing Protocol/1.1: Encoding and Transport" document
is a formal mapping of the abstract operations and attributes defined
in the model document onto HTTP/1.1 [RFC2616]. It also defines the
encoding rules for a new Internet MIME media type called
"application/ipp". This document also defines the rules for
transporting a message body over HTTP whose Content-Type is
"application/ipp". This document defines the 'ipp' scheme for
identifying IPP printers and jobs.
The "Mapping between LPD and IPP Protocols" document gives some
advice to implementers of gateways between IPP and LPD (Line Printer
Daemon) implementations.
