Although your picture now reflects Windows applications more
accurately, it is now too Windows specific. If the spooler and driver
box were eliminated, then this diagram would indicate that a client
application interacts with the ipp client (library). For Windows the
application consists of a spooler, driver and print provider, but that
is probably more detail than our document needs.
Also, the browser is just a special application, though it may be
important enough to show separately.
