Given the information you provided, this print server does not
properly implement IPP - IPP *requires* HTTP/1.1, and this print
server implements neither HTTP/1.1 nor the HTTP Expect: header.

We might be able to retry printing without the Expect header if we
get a 505 error, but since cupsDoFileRequest() is used for a lot of
other code, we'll need to be extra careful when changing that code.
