I get the following error on error_log on the CUPS server

EncryptClient: error:1407609C:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:http request

I have "Encryption Always" on the directive for the printer on the CUPS Server, and on the CUPS client I added ?encryption=always as you and the documentation make note of.

Could this be indicative of no SSL support on my client CUPS? It seems off that SSL would not be compiled into CUPS in the package release (it is CentOS 5).

Any ideas?
