Force https

Hello all.

Is there a way to force https when accessing the web interface?

What I'd like to do is force a user to enter https://cupsserver:631
so that http does not work altogether.

Currently, my config is setup such that when a user use http and then
access an option which requires encrypted authentication, the browser
returns a message "426 Upgrade Required" and this confuses the user;
yes, I tried explaning to them but...

If I removed Port 631 and just leave Port 443, this works fine for the
server but then the clients won't get a single printer.

Any other idea?

Thanks!
Angel
