Obviously my message was garbled. The default port of http is =
clearly 80. If IPP has a default port, then it must also be 80 for =
http://site/printer URIs. If we state a port in the URI, then that will =
also clearly be honoured. If the printer URI is an =
https://site/printer then the port will default to 443. If we use
https://site:port/printer then that port will be honoured.
