I think of HTTP as not being a connection oriented protocol. I know I'm using
the term loosely here, but, as I understand it, when you open up a connection
using http you can write and then you can read once. You can't do the
read/write read/write kind of activity. There is, however, the CreatePrintJob
command in IPP which wants to maintain a connection. That is, it wants this
read/write read/write connection. How does IPP plan to maintain the connection
when it begins to append documents to the job?
