IPP> IPP Pull/Push to printer

I've seen how to use an HTML Form to do a Web
Push and Pull to a printer. What would I use
to do say, an IPP Pull (print by ref) job to
an IPP printer without using a Web browser?

I'm concerned with using a Web browser to send
an IPP request to the printer because I will
be getting an HTTP packet with embedded IPP,
probably over Port 80. I would be expecting
IPP traffic through Port 631.

Is there some non-Web way of sending an IPP
request so the default port is 631 and the
Port Sniffer can rest assured that 631 is
always IPP and 80 is always HTML -- within
certain limits of course?

Thanks,

Carlos
