James, also note that IPP Everywhere and IPP-over-USB seem to be
independent standards. The latter is only about the data transfer, not
about the PDL. The former is about that IPP is used as transfer
protocol, PWG Raster and others as PDL, Bonjour for auto discovery, ...
It seems that printers can support none of the two, either one of the
two, or both.
