IPP WG M. Sweet Internet-Draft Apple Inc. Obsoletes: 2910,3382 (if approved) I. McDonald Intended status: Standards Track High North, Inc. Expires: February 24, 2017 August 23, 2016 Internet Printing Protocol/1.1: Encoding and Transport draft-sweet-rfc2910bis-10 Abstract The Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) is an application level protocol for distributed printing using Internet tools and technologies. This document defines the rules for encoding IPP operations, attributes, and values into the Internet MIME media type called "application/ ipp". It also defines the rules for transporting a message body whose Content-Type is "application/ipp" over HTTP and/or HTTPS. The IPP data model and operation semantics are described in IPP/1.1: Model and Semantics [RFC2911bis]. This document obsoletes RFCs 2910 and 3382. Editor's Note (To Be Removed by RFC Editor) This draft is being submitted as an AD-sponsored replacement of RFCs 2910 and 3382, with drafts being reviewed and edited by the IEEE- ISTO's Printer Working Group IPP WG. The initial goal is to have an clean version of IPP/1.1 as an IETF Proposed Standard. The long-term goal is to advance IPP/1.1 to IETF Internet Standard.

Introduction This document contains the rules for encoding IPP operations and describes two layers: the transport layer and the operation layer. Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 3] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 The transport layer consists of an HTTP request and response. All IPP implementations support HTTP/1.1, the relevant parts of which are described in the following RFCs: o Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/1.1): Message Syntax and Routing [RFC7230] o Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/1.1): Semantics and Content [RFC7231] o Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/1.1): Conditional Requests [RFC7232] o Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/1.1): Caching [RFC7234] o Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/1.1): Authentication [RFC7235] o The 'Basic' HTTP Authentication Scheme [RFC7617] o HTTP Digest Access Authentication [RFC7616] IPP implementations can support HTTP/2 which is described in the following RFCs: o Hypertext Transfer Protocol Version 2 (HTTP/2) [RFC7540] o HPACK - Header Compression for HTTP/2 [RFC7541] This document specifies the HTTP headers that an IPP implementation supports. The operation layer consists of a message body in an HTTP request or response. The "Internet Printing Protocol/1.1: Model and Semantics" [RFC2911bis] and subsequent extensions (collectively known as the IPP Model) define the semantics of such a message body and the supported values. This document specifies the encoding of an IPP request and response message. 2. Conventions Used in This Document 2.1. Requirements Language The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119]. Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 4] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 2.2. Printing Terminology Client: Initiator of outgoing IPP session requests and sender of outgoing IPP operation requests (Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1 [RFC7230] User Agent). Document: An object created and managed by a Printer that contains description, processing, and status information. A Document object may have attached data and is bound to a single Job. 'ipp' URI: An IPP URI as defined in [RFC3510]. 'ipps' URI: An IPPS URI as defined in [RFC7472]. Job: An object created and managed by a Printer that contains description, processing, and status information. The Job also contains zero or more Document objects. Logical Device: A print server, software service, or gateway that processes Jobs and either forwards or stores the processed Job or uses one or more Physical Devices to render output. Model: The semantics of operations, attributes, values, and status codes used in the Internet Printing Protocol as defined in the Internet Printing Protocol/1.1: Model and Semantics [RFC2911bis] and subsequent extensions. Output Device: A single Logical or Physical Device. Physical Device: A hardware implementation of an endpoint device, e.g., a marking engine, a fax modem, etc. Printer: Listener for incoming IPP session requests and receiver of incoming IPP operation requests (Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1 [RFC7230] Server) that represents one or more Physical Devices or a Logical Device. 2.3.

Encoding of the Operation Layer The operation layer is the message body part of the HTTP request or response and it MUST contain a single IPP operation request or IPP operation response. Each request or response consists of a sequence of values and attribute groups. Attribute groups consist of a sequence of attributes each of which is a name and value. Names and values are ultimately sequences of octets. The encoding consists of octets as the most primitive type. There are several types built from octets, but three important types are integers, character strings and octet strings, on which most other data types are built. Every character string in this encoding MUST be a sequence of characters where the characters are associated with some charset [RFC2978] and some natural language. A character string MUST be in "reading order" with the first character in the value (according to reading order) being the first character in the encoding. A character string whose associated charset is US-ASCII whose associated natural language is US English is henceforth called a US-ASCII-STRING. A character string whose associated charset and natural language are specified in a request or response as described in the Model is henceforth called a LOCALIZED-STRING. An octet string MUST be in "Model order" with the first octet in the value (according to the Model order) being the first octet in the encoding. Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 6] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 Every integer in this encoding MUST be encoded as a signed integer using two's-complement binary encoding with big-endian format (also known as "network order" and "most significant byte first"). The number of octets for an integer MUST be 1, 2 or 4, depending on usage in the protocol. Such one-octet integers, henceforth called SIGNED- BYTE, are used for the version-number and tag fields. Such two-byte integers, henceforth called SIGNED-SHORT are used for the operation- id, status-code and length fields. Four byte integers, henceforth called SIGNED-INTEGER, are used for value fields and the request-id. The following two sections present the encoding of the operation layer in two ways: o informally through pictures and description o formally through Augmented Backus-Naur Form (ABNF), as specified by RFC 5234 [RFC5234] An operation request or response MUST use the encoding described in these two sections. 3.1. Picture of the Encoding 3.1.1. Request and Response An operation request or response is encoded as follows: ----------------------------------------------- | version-number | 2 bytes - required ----------------------------------------------- | operation-id (request) | | or | 2 bytes - required | status-code (response) | ----------------------------------------------- | request-id | 4 bytes - required ----------------------------------------------- | attribute-group | n bytes - 0 or more ----------------------------------------------- | end-of-attributes-tag | 1 byte - required ----------------------------------------------- | data | q bytes - optional ----------------------------------------------- Figure 1: IPP Message Format The first three fields in the above diagram contain the value of attributes described in Section 4.1.1 of the Model [RFC2911bis]. Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 7] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 The fourth field is the "attribute-group" field, and it occurs 0 or more times. Each "attribute-group" field represents a single group of attributes, such as an Operation Attributes group or a Job Attributes group (see the Model). The Model specifies the required attribute groups and their order for each operation request and response. The "end-of-attributes-tag" field is always present, even when the "data" is not present. The Model specifies whether the "data" field is present for each operation request and response. 3.1.2. Attribute Group Each "attribute-group" field is encoded as follows: ----------------------------------------------- | begin-attribute-group-tag | 1 byte ---------------------------------------------------------- | attribute | p bytes |- 0 or more ---------------------------------------------------------- Figure 2: Attribute Group Encoding An "attribute-group" field contains zero or more "attribute" fields. Note, the values of the "begin-attribute-group-tag" field and the "end-of-attributes-tag" field are called "delimiter-tags". 3.1.3. Attribute An "attribute" field is encoded as follows: ----------------------------------------------- | attribute-with-one-value | q bytes ---------------------------------------------------------- | additional-value | r bytes |- 0 or more ---------------------------------------------------------- Figure 3: Attribute Encoding When an attribute is single valued (e.g. "copies" with value of 10) or multi-valued with one value (e.g. "sides-supported" with just the value 'one-sided') it is encoded with just an "attribute-with-one- value" field. When an attribute is multi-valued with n values (e.g. "sides-supported" with the values 'one-sided' and 'two-sided-long- edge'), it is encoded with an "attribute-with-one-value" field followed by n-1 "additional-value" fields. Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 8] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 3.1.4. Attribute-with-one-value Each "attribute-with-one-value" field is encoded as follows: ----------------------------------------------- | value-tag | 1 byte ----------------------------------------------- | name-length (value is u) | 2 bytes ----------------------------------------------- | name | u bytes ----------------------------------------------- | value-length (value is v) | 2 bytes ----------------------------------------------- | value | v bytes ----------------------------------------------- Figure 4: Single Value Attribute Encoding An "attribute-with-one-value" field is encoded with five subfields: o The "value-tag" field specifies the attribute syntax, e.g. 0x44 for the attribute syntax 'keyword'. o The "name-length" field specifies the length of the "name" field in bytes, e.g. u in the above diagram or 15 for the name "sides- supported". o The "name" field contains the textual name of the attribute, e.g. "sides-supported". o The "value-length" field specifies the length of the "value" field in bytes, e.g. v in the above diagram or 9 for the (keyword) value 'one-sided'. o The "value" field contains the value of the attribute, e.g. the textual value 'one-sided'. 3.1.5. Additional-value Each "additional-value" field is encoded as follows: Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 9] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 ----------------------------------------------- | value-tag | 1 byte ----------------------------------------------- | name-length (value is 0x0000) | 2 bytes ----------------------------------------------- | value-length (value is w) | 2 bytes ----------------------------------------------- | value | w bytes ----------------------------------------------- Figure 5: Additional Attribute Value Encoding An "additional-value" is encoded with four subfields: o The "value-tag" field specifies the attribute syntax, e.g. 0x44 for the attribute syntax 'keyword'. o The "name-length" field has the value of 0 in order to signify that it is an "additional-value". The value of the "name-length" field distinguishes an "additional-value" field ("name-length" is 0) from an "attribute-with-one-value" field ("name-length" is not 0). o The "value-length" field specifies the length of the "value" field in bytes, e.g. w in the above diagram or 19 for the (keyword) value 'two-sided-long-edge'. o The "value" field contains the value of the attribute, e.g. the textual value 'two-sided-long-edge'. 3.1.6. Collection Attribute Collection attributes create a named group containing related "member" attributes. The "attribute-with-one-value" field for a collection attribute is encoded as follows: Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 10] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 ----------------------------------------------- | value-tag (value is 0x34) | 1 byte ----------------------------------------------- | name-length (value is u) | 2 bytes ----------------------------------------------- | name | u bytes ----------------------------------------------- | value-length (value is 0x0000) | 2 bytes ----------------------------------------------------------- | member-attribute | q bytes |-0 or more ----------------------------------------------------------- | end-value-tag (value is 0x37) | 1 byte ----------------------------------------------- | end-name-length (value is 0x0000) | 2 bytes ----------------------------------------------- | end-value-length (value is 0x0000) | 2 bytes ----------------------------------------------- Figure 6: Collection Attribute Encoding Collection attribute is encoded with eight subfields: o The "value-tag" field specifies the start attribute syntax: 0x34 for the attribute syntax 'begCollection'. o The "name-length" field specifies the length of the "name" field in bytes, e.g. u in the above diagram or 9 for the name "media- col". Additional collection attribute values use a name length of 0x0000. o The "name" field contains the textual name of the attribute, e.g. "media-col". o The "value-length" field specifies a length of 0x0000. o The "member-attribute" field contains member attributes encoded as defined in Section 3.1.7. o The "end-value-tag" field specifies the end attribute syntax: 0x37 for the attribute syntax 'endCollection'. o The "end-name-length" field specifies a length of 0x0000. o The "end-value-length" field specifies a length of 0x0000. Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 11] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 3.1.7. Member Attributes Each "member-attribute" field is encoded as follows: ----------------------------------------------- | value-tag (value is 0x4A) | 1 byte ----------------------------------------------- | name-length (value is 0x0000) | 2 bytes ----------------------------------------------- | value-length (value is w) | 2 bytes ----------------------------------------------- | value (member-name) | w bytes ----------------------------------------------- | member-value-tag | 1 byte ----------------------------------------------- | name-length (value is 0x0000) | 2 bytes ----------------------------------------------- | member-value-length (value is x) | 2 bytes ----------------------------------------------- | member-value | x bytes ----------------------------------------------- Figure 7: Member Attribute Encoding A "member-attribute" is encoded with eight subfields: o The "value-tag" field specifies 0x4A for the attribute syntax 'memberAttrName'. o The "name-length" field has the value of 0 in order to signify that it is a "member-attribute" contained in the collection. o The "value-length" field specifies the length of the "value" field in bytes, e.g. w in the above diagram or 10 for the member attribute name 'media-type'. Additional member attribute values are specifies using a value length of 0. o The "value" field contains the name of the member attribute, e.g. the textual value 'media-type'. o The "member-value-tag" field specifies the attribute syntax for the member attribute, e.g. 0x44 for the attribute syntax 'keyword'. o The second "name-length" field has the value of 0 in order to signify that it is a "member-attribute" contained in the collection. Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 12] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 o The "member-value-length" field specifies the length of the member attribute value, e.g. x in the above diagram or 10 for the value 'stationery'. o The "member-value" field contains the value of the attribute, e.g. the textual value 'stationery'. 3.1.8. Alternative Picture of the Encoding of a Request Or a Response From the standpoint of a parser that performs an action based on a "tag" value, the encoding consists of: ----------------------------------------------- | version-number | 2 bytes - required ----------------------------------------------- | operation-id (request) | | or | 2 bytes - required | status-code (response) | ----------------------------------------------- | request-id | 4 bytes - required ----------------------------------------------------------- | tag (delimiter-tag or value-tag) | 1 byte | ----------------------------------------------- |-0 or more | empty or rest of attribute | x bytes | ----------------------------------------------------------- | end-of-attributes-tag | 1 byte - required ----------------------------------------------- | data | y bytes - optional ----------------------------------------------- Figure 8: Encoding Based On Value Tags The following show what fields the parser would expect after each type of "tag": o "begin-attribute-group-tag": expect zero or more "attribute" fields o "value-tag": expect the remainder of an "attribute-with-one-value" or an "additional-value". o "end-of-attributes-tag": expect that "attribute" fields are complete and there is optional "data" Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 13] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 3.2.

Table 1 maps the Model group name to value of the "begin-attribute- group-tag" field: Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 15] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 +----------------+--------------------------------------------------+ | Model Document | "begin-attribute-group-tag" field values | | Group | | +----------------+--------------------------------------------------+ | Operation | "operations-attributes-tag" | | Attributes | | +----------------+--------------------------------------------------+ | Job Template | "job-attributes-tag" | | Attributes | | +----------------+--------------------------------------------------+ | Job Object | "job-attributes-tag" | | Attributes | | +----------------+--------------------------------------------------+ | Unsupported | "unsupported-attributes-tag" | | Attributes | | +----------------+--------------------------------------------------+ | Requested | (Get-Job-Attributes) "job-attributes-tag" | | Attributes | | +----------------+--------------------------------------------------+ | Requested | (Get-Printer-Attributes)"printer-attributes-tag" | | Attributes | | +----------------+--------------------------------------------------+ | Document | in a special position at the end of the message | | Content | as described in Section 3.1.1. | +----------------+--------------------------------------------------+ Table 1: Group Values For each operation request and response, the Model prescribes the required and optional attribute groups, along with their order. Within each attribute group, the Model prescribes the required and optional attributes, along with their order. When the Model requires an attribute group in a request or response and the attribute group contains zero attributes, a request or response SHOULD encode the attribute group with the "begin-attribute- group-tag" field followed by zero "attribute" fields. For example, if the Client requests a single unsupported attribute with the Get- Printer-Attributes operation, the Printer MUST return no "attribute" fields, and it SHOULD return a "begin-attribute-group-tag" field for the Printer Attributes Group. The Unsupported Attributes group is not such an example. According to the Model, the Unsupported Attributes Group SHOULD be present only if the unsupported attributes group contains at least one attribute. A receiver of a request MUST be able to process the following as equivalent empty attribute groups: Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 16] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 a. A "begin-attribute-group-tag" field with zero following "attribute" fields. b. An expected but missing "begin-attribute-group-tag" field. When the Model requires a sequence of an unknown number of attribute groups, each of the same type, the encoding MUST contain one "begin- attribute-group-tag" field for each attribute group even when an "attribute-group" field contains zero "attribute" sub-fields. For example, the Get-Jobs operation may return zero attributes for some jobs and not others. The "begin-attribute-group-tag" field followed by zero "attribute" fields tells the recipient that there is a Job in queue for which no information is available except that it is in the queue. 3.4. Required Parameters Some operation elements are called parameters in the Model. They MUST be encoded in a special position and they MUST NOT appear as operation attributes. These parameters are described in the subsections below. 3.4.1. Version-number The "version-number" field consists of a major and minor version- number, each of which is represented by a SIGNED-BYTE. The major version-number is the first byte of the encoding and the minor version-number is the second byte of the encoding. The protocol described in [RFC2911bis] has a major version-number of 1 (0x01) and a minor version-number of 1 (0x01). The ABNF for these two bytes is %x01.01. Note: See Section 9 for more information on the "version-number" field and IPP version numbers. 3.4.2. Operation-id The "operation-id" field contains an operation-id value as defined in the Model. The value is encoded as a SIGNED-SHORT and is located in the third and fourth bytes of the encoding of an operation request. 3.4.3. Status-code The "status-code" field contains a status-code value as defined in the Model. The value is encoded as a SIGNED-SHORT and is located in the third and fourth bytes of the encoding of an operation response. Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 17] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 If an IPP status-code is returned, then the HTTP status-code MUST be 200 (OK). With any other HTTP status-code value, the HTTP response MUST NOT contain an IPP message body, and thus no IPP status-code is returned. 3.4.4. Request-id The "request-id" field contains the request-id value as defined in the Model. The value is encoded as a SIGNED-INTEGER and is located in the fifth through eighth bytes of the encoding. 3.5. Tags There are two kinds of tags: o delimiter tags: delimit major sections of the protocol, namely attributes and data o value tags: specify the type of each attribute value Tags are part of the IANA IPP registry [IANA-IPP] 3.5.1. Delimiter Tags Table 2 specifies the values for the delimiter tags defined in this document: +---------------+---------------------------------------------------+ | Tag Value | Meaning | | (Hex) | | +---------------+---------------------------------------------------+ | 0x00 | reserved for future delimiters in standards track | | | documents | | 0x01 | "operation-attributes-tag" | | 0x02 | "job-attributes-tag" | | 0x03 | "end-of-attributes-tag" | | 0x04 | "printer-attributes-tag" | | 0x05 | "unsupported-attributes-tag" | | 0x06-0x0f | reserved for future delimiters in standards track | | | documents | +---------------+---------------------------------------------------+ Table 2: Delimiter Tags When a "begin-attribute-group-tag" field occurs in the protocol, it means that zero or more following attributes up to the next delimiter tag are attributes belonging to the attribute group specified by the value of the "begin-attribute-group-tag". For example, if the value Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 18] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 of "begin-attribute-group-tag" is 0x01, the following attributes are members of the Operations Attributes group. The "end-of-attributes-tag" (value 0x03) MUST occur exactly once in an operation and MUST be the last "delimiter-tag". If the operation has a document-data group, the Document data in that group follows the "end-of-attributes-tag". The order and presence of "attribute-group" fields (whose beginning is marked by the "begin-attribute-group-tag" subfield) for each operation request and each operation response MUST be that defined in the Model. A Printer MUST treat a "delimiter-tag" (values from 0x00 through 0x0F) differently from a "value-tag" (values from 0x10 through 0xFF) so that the Printer knows there is an entire attribute group as opposed to a single value. 3.5.2. Value Tags The remaining tables show values for the "value-tag" field, which is the first octet of an attribute. The "value-tag" field specifies the type of the value of the attribute. Table 3 specifies the "out-of-band" values for the "value-tag" field defined in this document: +------------+------------------------------------------------------+ | Tag Value | Meaning | | (Hex) | | +------------+------------------------------------------------------+ | 0x10 | unsupported | | 0x11 | reserved for "out-of-band" value definitions in | | | future standards track documents | | 0x12 | unknown | | 0x13 | no-value | | 0x14-0x1F | reserved for "out-of-band" value definitions in | | | future standards track documents | +------------+------------------------------------------------------+ Table 3: Out of Band Values Table 4 specifies the integer values for the "value-tag" field: Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 19] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 +-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | Tag Value | Meaning | | (Hex) | | +-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | 0x20 | reserved for integer type definitions in future | | | standards track documents | | 0x21 | integer | | 0x22 | boolean | | 0x23 | enum | | 0x24-0x2F | reserved for integer type definitions in future | | | standards track documents | +-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+ Table 4: Integer Tags Table 5 specifies the octetString values for the "value-tag" field defined in this document: +-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | Tag Value | Meaning | | (Hex) | | +-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | 0x30 | octetString with an unspecified format | | 0x31 | dateTime | | 0x32 | resolution | | 0x33 | rangeOfInteger | | 0x34 | begCollection | | 0x35 | textWithLanguage | | 0x36 | nameWithLanguage | | 0x37 | endCollection | | 0x38-0x3F | reserved for octetString type definitions in future | | | standards track documents | +-------------+-----------------------------------------------------+ Table 5: octetString Tags Table 6 specifies the character-string values for the "value-tag" field defined in this document: Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 20] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 +------------+------------------------------------------------------+ | Tag Value | Meaning | | (Hex) | | +------------+------------------------------------------------------+ | 0x40 | reserved for definition in a future standards track | | | document | | 0x41 | textWithoutLanguage | | 0x42 | nameWithoutLanguage | | 0x43 | reserved for definition in a future standards track | | | document | | 0x44 | keyword | | 0x45 | uri | | 0x46 | uriScheme | | 0x47 | charset | | 0x48 | naturalLanguage | | 0x49 | mimeMediaType | | 0x4A | memberAttrName | | 0x4B-0x5F | reserved for character string type definitions in | | | future standards track documents | +------------+------------------------------------------------------+ Table 6: String Tags Note: An attribute value always has a type, which is explicitly specified by its tag; one such tag value is "nameWithoutLanguage". An attribute's name has an implicit type, which is keyword. The values 0x60-0xFF are reserved for future type definitions in standards track documents. The tag 0x7F is reserved for extending types beyond the 255 values available with a single byte. A tag value of 0x7F MUST signify that the first 4 bytes of the value field are interpreted as the tag value. Note this future extension doesn't affect parsers that are unaware of this special tag. The tag is like any other unknown tag, and the value length specifies the length of a value, which contains a value that the parser treats atomically. Values from 0x00000000 to 0x3FFFFFFF are reserved for definition in future standards track documents. The values 0x40000000 to 0x7FFFFFFF are reserved for vendor extensions. 3.6. Name-Length The "name-length" field consists of a SIGNED-SHORT and specifies the number of octets in the immediately following "name" field. The value of this field excludes the two bytes of the "name-length" field. For example, if the "name" field contains 'sides', the value of this field is 5. Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 21] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 If a "name-length" field has a value of zero, the following "name" field is empty and the following value is treated as an additional value for the attribute encoded in the nearest preceding "attribute- with-one-value" field. Within an attribute group, if two or more attributes have the same name, the attribute group is malformed (see [RFC2911bis]). The zero-length name is the only mechanism for multi- valued attributes. 3.7. (Attribute) Name The "name" field contains the name of an attribute. The Model specifies such names. 3.8. Value Length The "value-length" field consists of a SIGNED-SHORT which specifies the number of octets in the immediately following "value" field. The value of this field excludes the two bytes of the "value-length" field. For example, if the "value" field contains the keyword (string) value 'one-sided', the value of this field is 9. For any of the types represented by binary signed integers, the sender MUST encode the value in exactly four octets. For any of the types represented by binary signed bytes, e.g., the boolean type, the sender MUST encode the value in exactly one octet. For any of the types represented by character-strings, the sender MUST encode the value with all the characters of the string and without any padding characters. For "out-of-band" "value-tag" fields defined in this document, such as 'unsupported', the "value-length" MUST be 0 and the "value" empty; the "value" has no meaning when the "value-tag" has one of these "out-of-band" values. For future "out-of-band" "value-tag" fields, the same rule holds unless the definition explicitly states that the "value-length" MAY be non-zero and the "value" non-empty 3.9. (Attribute) Value The syntax types (specified by the "value-tag" field) and most of the details of the representation of attribute values are defined in the Model. Table 7 augments the information in the Model and defines the syntax types from the Model in terms of the 5 basic types defined in Section 3. The 5 types are US-ASCII-STRING, LOCALIZED-STRING, SIGNED-INTEGER, SIGNED-SHORT, SIGNED-BYTE, and OCTET-STRING. +----------------------+--------------------------------------------+ Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 22] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 | Syntax of Attribute | Encoding | | Value | | +----------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | textWithoutLanguage, | LOCALIZED-STRING | | nameWithoutLanguage | | +----------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | textWithLanguage | OCTET-STRING consisting of 4 fields: a | | | SIGNED-SHORT which is the number of octets | | | in the following field, a value of type | | | natural-language, a SIGNED-SHORT which is | | | the number of octets in the following | | | field, and a value of type | | | textWithoutLanguage.

Data The "data" field MUST include any data required by the operation. 4. Encoding of Transport Layer HTTP/1.1 [RFC7230] is the REQUIRED transport layer for this protocol. HTTP/2 [RFC7540] is an OPTIONAL transport layer for this protocol. The operation layer has been designed with the assumption that the transport layer contains the following information: o the target URI for the operation o the total length of the data in the operation layer, either as a single length or as a sequence of chunks each with a length. Printer implementations MUST support HTTP over the IANA assigned Well Known Port 631 (the IPP default port), although a Printer implementation can support HTTP over some other port as well. Each HTTP operation MUST use the POST method where the request-URI is the object target of the operation, and where the "Content-Type" of the message body in each request and response MUST be "application/ ipp". The message body MUST contain the operation layer and MUST have the syntax described in Section 3.2 "Syntax of Encoding". A Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 24] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 Client implementation MUST adhere to the rules for a Client described for HTTP [RFC7230]. A Printer (server) implementation MUST adhere the rules for an origin server described for HTTP [RFC7230]. An IPP server sends a response for each request that it receives. If an IPP server detects an error, it MAY send a response before it has read the entire request. If the HTTP layer of the IPP server completes processing the HTTP headers successfully, it MAY send an intermediate response, such as "100 Continue", with no IPP data before sending the IPP response. A Client MUST expect such a variety of responses from an IPP server. For further information on HTTP, consult the HTTP documents [RFC7230]. An HTTP/1.1 server MUST support chunking for IPP requests, and an IPP Client MUST support chunking for IPP responses according to HTTP/1.1 [RFC7230]. 4.1. Printer URI, Job URI, and Job ID All Printer and Job objects are identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) [RFC3986] so that they can be persistently and unambiguously referenced. Jobs can also be identified by a combination of Printer URI and Job ID. Some operation elements are encoded twice, once as the request-URI on the HTTP Request-Line and a second time as a REQUIRED operation attribute in the application/ipp entity. These attributes are the target for the operation and are called "printer-uri" and "job-uri". Note: The target URI is included twice in an operation referencing the same IPP object, but the two URIs can be different. For example, the HTTP request URI can be relative while the IPP request URI is absolute. HTTP allows Clients to generate and send a relative URI rather than an absolute URI. A relative URI identifies a resource with the scope of the HTTP server, but does not include scheme, host or port. The following statements characterize how URIs are used in the mapping of IPP onto HTTP: 1. Although potentially redundant, a Client MUST supply the target of the operation both as an operation attribute and as a URI at the HTTP layer. The rationale for this decision is to maintain a consistent set of rules for mapping "application/ipp" to possibly many communication layers, even where URIs are not used as the addressing mechanism in the transport layer. Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 25] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 2. Even though these two URIs might not be literally identical (one being relative and the other being absolute), they MUST both reference the same IPP object. 3. The URI in the HTTP layer is either relative or absolute and is used by the HTTP server to route the HTTP request to the correct resource relative to that HTTP server. 4. Once the HTTP server resource begins to process the HTTP request, it can get the reference to the appropriate IPP Printer object from either the HTTP URI (using to the context of the HTTP server for relative URIs) or from the URI within the operation request; the choice is up to the implementation. 5. HTTP URIs can be relative or absolute, but the target URI in the IPP operation attribute MUST be an absolute URI. 5. IPP URI Schemes The IPP URI schemes are 'ipp' [RFC3510] and 'ipps' [RFC7472]. Clients and Printers MUST support the ipp-URI value in the following IPP attributes: o Job attributes: * job-uri * job-printer-uri o Printer attributes: * printer-uri-supported o Operation attributes: * job-uri * printer-uri Each of the above attributes identifies a Printer or Job. The ipp-URI and ipps-URI are intended as the value of the attributes in this list. All of these attributes have a syntax type of 'uri', but there are attributes with a syntax type of 'uri' that do not use the 'ipp' scheme, e.g., "job-more-info". If a Printer registers its URI with a directory service, the Printer MUST register an ipp-URI or ipps-URI. Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 26] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 When a Client sends a request, it MUST convert a target ipp-URI to a target http-URL (or ipps-URI to a target https-URI) for the HTTP layer according to the following steps: 1. change the 'ipp' scheme to 'http' or 'ipps' scheme to 'https' 2. add an explicit port 631 if the ipp-URL or ipps-URL does not contain an explicit port. Note: Port 631 is the IANA assigned Well Known Port for the 'ipp' and 'ipps' schemes. The Client MUST use the target http-URL or https-URL in both the HTTP Request-Line and HTTP headers, as specified by HTTP [RFC7230]. However, the Client MUST use the target ipp-URI or ipps-URI for the value of the "printer-uri" or "job-uri" operation attribute within the application/ipp body of the request. The server MUST use the ipp-URI or ipps-URI for the value of the "printer-uri", "job-uri" or "printer-uri-supported" attributes within the application/ipp body of the response. For example, when an IPP Client sends a request directly, i.e., no proxy, to an ipp-URI "ipp://printer.example.com/ipp/print/myqueue", it opens a TCP connection to port 631 (the IPP implicit port) on the host "printer.example.com" and sends the following data: POST /ipp/print/myqueue HTTP/1.1 Host: printer.example.com:631 Content-type: application/ipp Transfer-Encoding: chunked ... "printer-uri" 'ipp://printer.example.com/ipp/print/myqueue' (encoded in application/ipp message body) ... Figure 11: Direct IPP Request As another example, when an IPP Client sends the same request as above via a proxy "myproxy.example.com", it opens a TCP connection to the proxy port 8080 on the proxy host "myproxy.example.com" and sends the following data: Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 27] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 POST http://printer.example.com:631/ipp/print/myqueue HTTP/1.1 Host: printer.example.com:631 Content-type: application/ipp Transfer-Encoding: chunked ... "printer-uri" 'ipp://printer.example.com/ipp/print/myqueue' (encoded in application/ipp message body) ... Figure 12: Proxied IPP Request The proxy then connects to the IPP origin server with headers that are the same as the "no-proxy" example above. 6. IANA Considerations See the section on "IANA Considerations" in the document "Internet Printing Protocol/1.1: Model and Semantics" [RFC2911bis] for information on IANA considerations for IPP extensions. The information following this paragraph will be forwarded to IANA to update the existing 'application/ipp' MIME media type registration whose contents are defined in Section 3 "Encoding of the Operation Layer" in this document: Type name: application Subtype name: ipp Required parameters: N/A Optional parameters: N/A Encoding considerations: IPP protocol requests/responses MAY contain long lines and ALWAYS contain binary data (for example attribute value lengths). Security considerations: IPP protocol requests/responses do not introduce any security risks not already inherent in the underlying transport protocols. Protocol mixed-version interworking rules in [RFC2911bis] as well as protocol encoding rules in this document are complete and unambiguous. See also the security considerations in this document and [RFC2911bis]. Interoperability considerations: IPP requests (generated by clients) and responses (generated by servers) MUST comply with all conformance requirements imposed by the normative specifications [RFC2911bis] and this document. Protocol encoding rules specified in [RFC2910bis] are comprehensive, so that interoperability between conforming Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 28] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 implementations is guaranteed (although support for specific optional features is not ensured). Both the "charset" and "natural-language" of all IPP attribute values which are a LOCALIZED-STRING are explicit within IPP protocol requests/responses (without recourse to any external information in HTTP, SMTP, or other message transport headers). Published specifications: [RFC2911bis] Sweet, M., McDonald, I., "Internet Printing Protocol/1.1: Model and Semantics" draft-sweet-rfc2911bis-10.txt, August 2016.

Applications which use this media type: Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) print clients and print servers, communicating using HTTP/HTTPS or other transport protocol.

Internationalization Considerations See the section on "Internationalization Considerations" in the document "Internet Printing Protocol/1.1: Model and Semantics" [RFC2911bis] for information on internationalization. This document adds no additional issues. 8. Security Considerations The IPP Model and Semantics document [RFC2911bis] discusses high level security requirements (Client Authentication, Server Authentication and Operation Privacy). Client Authentication is the mechanism by which the Client proves its identity to the server in a secure manner. Server Authentication is the mechanism by which the server proves its identity to the Client in a secure manner. Operation Privacy is defined as a mechanism for protecting operations from eavesdropping. Message Integrity is addressed in the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) over HTTPS Transport Binding and the 'ipps' URI Scheme [RFC7472]. 8.1. Security Conformance Requirements This section defines the security requirements for IPP Clients and IPP objects. 8.1.1. Digest Authentication IPP Clients and Printers SHOULD support Digest Authentication [RFC7616]. Use of the Message Integrity feature (qop="auth-int") is OPTIONAL. Note: Previous versions of this document required support for the MD5 algorithms, however [RFC7616] makes SHA2-256 mandatory to implement and deprecates MD5, allowing its use for backwards compatibility reasons. IPP implementations that support Digest Authentication MUST support SHA2-256 and SHOULD support MD5 for backwards-compatibility. Note: The reason that IPP Clients and Printers SHOULD (rather than MUST) support Digest Authentication is that there is a certain class of output devices where it does not make sense. Specifically, a low- end device with limited ROM space and low paper throughput may not need Client Authentication. This class of device typically requires firmware designers to make trade-offs between protocols and functionality to arrive at the lowest-cost solution possible. Factored into the designer's decisions is not just the size of the code, but also the testing, maintenance, usefulness, and time-to- Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 30] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 market impact for each feature delivered to the customer. Forcing such low-end devices to provide security in order to claim IPP/1.1 conformance would not make business sense. Print devices that have high-volume throughput and have available ROM space will typically provide support for Client Authentication that safeguards the device from unauthorized access because these devices are prone to a high loss of consumables and paper if unauthorized access occurs. 8.1.2. Transport Layer Security (TLS) IPP Clients and Printers SHOULD support Transport Layer Security (TLS) [RFC5246] [RFC7525] for Server Authentication and Operation Privacy. IPP Printers MAY also support TLS for Client Authentication. IPP Clients and Printers MAY support Basic Authentication [RFC7617] for User Authentication if the channel is secure, e.g., IPP over HTTPS [RFC7472]. IPP Clients and Printers SHOULD NOT support Basic Authentication over insecure channels. The IPP Model and Semantics document [RFC2911bis] defines two Printer attributes ("uri-authentication-supported" and "uri-security- supported") that the Client can use to discover the security policy of a Printer. That document also outlines IPP-specific security considerations and is the primary reference for security implications with regard to the IPP protocol itself. Note: Because previous versions of this document did not require TLS support, this version cannot require it for IPP/1.1. However, since printing often involves a great deal of sensitive or private information (medical reports, performance reviews, banking information, etc.) and network monitoring is pervasive ([RFC7258]), implementors are strongly encouraged to include TLS support. Note: Because IPP Printers typically use self-signed X.509 certificates, IPP Clients SHOULD support Trust On First Use (defined in [RFC7435]) in addition to traditional X.509 certificate validation. 8.2. Using IPP with TLS IPP uses the "Upgrading to TLS Within HTTP/1.1" mechanism [RFC2817] for 'ipp' URIs. The Client requests a secure TLS connection by using the HTTP "Upgrade" header, while the server agrees in the HTTP response. The switch to TLS occurs either because the server grants the Client's request to upgrade to TLS, or a server asks to switch to TLS in its response. Secure communication begins with a server's response to switch to TLS. Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 31] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 IPP uses the "HTTPS: HTTP over TLS" mechanism [RFC2818] for 'ipps' URIs. The Client and server negotiate a secure TLS connection immediately and unconditionally. 9. Interoperability with Other IPP Versions It is beyond the scope of this specification to mandate conformance with versions of IPP other than 1.1. IPP was deliberately designed, however, to make supporting other versions easy. IPP objects (Printers, Jobs, etc.) SHOULD: o understand any valid request whose major "version-number" is greater than 0; o respond appropriately with a response containing the same "version-number" parameter value used by the Client in the request (if the Client-supplied "version-number" is supported) or the highest "version-number" supported by the Printer (if the Client- supplied "version-number" is not supported.) IPP Clients SHOULD: o understand any valid response whose major "version-number" is greater than 0. 9.1. The "version-number" Parameter The following are rules regarding the "version-number" parameter (see Section 3.3): 1. Clients MUST send requests containing a "version-number" parameter with the highest supported value, e.g., '1.1', '2.0', etc., and SHOULD try supplying alternate version numbers if they receive a 'server-error-version-not-supported' error return in a response. For example, if a Client sends an IPP/2.0 request that is rejected with the 'server-error-version-not-supported' error and an IPP/1.1 "version-number", it SHOULD retry by sending an IPP/1.1 request. 2. IPP objects (Printers, Jobs, etc.) MUST accept requests containing a "version-number" parameter with a '1.1' value (or reject the request for reasons other than 'server-error-version- not-supported'). 3. IPP objects SHOULD either accept requests whose major version is greater than 0 or reject such requests with the 'server-error- version-not-supported' status code. See [RFC2911bis] "Versions" sub-section. Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 32] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 4. In any case, security MUST NOT be compromised when a Client supplies a lower "version-number" parameter in a request. For example, if an IPP/2.0 conforming Printer accepts version '1.1' requests and is configured to enforce Digest Authentication, it MUST do the same for a version '1.1' request. 9.2. Security and URI Schemes The following are rules regarding security, the "version-number" parameter, and the URI scheme supplied in target attributes and responses: 1. When a Client supplies a request, the "printer-uri" or "job-uri" target operation attribute MUST have the same scheme as that indicated in one of the values of the "printer-uri-supported" Printer attribute. 2. When the Printer returns the "job-printer-uri" or "job-uri" Job Description attributes, it SHOULD return the same scheme ('ipp', 'ipps', etc.) that the Client supplied in the "printer-uri" or "job-uri" target operation attributes in the Get-Job-Attributes or Get-Jobs request, rather than the scheme used when the Job was created. However, when a Client requests Job attributes using the Get-Job-Attributes or Get-Jobs operations, the Jobs and Job attributes that the Printer returns depends on: (1) the security in effect when the Job was created, (2) the security in effect in the query request, and (3) the security policy in force. 3. The Printer MUST enforce its security and privacy policies based on the owner of the IPP object and the URI scheme and/or credentials supplied by the Client in the current request. 10. Changes Since RFC 2910 The following changes have been made since the publication of RFC 2910: o Added references to current IPP extension specifications. o Added optional support for HTTP/2. o Added collection attribute syntax from RFC 3382. o Fixed typographical errors. o Now reference TLS/1.2 and no longer mandate the TLS/1.0 MTI cipher suites. Sweet & McDonald Expires February 24, 2017 [Page 33] Internet-Draft IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport August 2016 o Updated all references. o Updated document organization to follow current style. o Updated example ipp: URIs to follow RFC 7472 guidelines. o Updated version compatibility for all versions of IPP. o Updated HTTP Digest authentication to optional for Clients. o Removed references to (experimental) IPP/1.0 and usage of http:/https: URLs. 11.
