As most of you are already aware an IPP Interoperability Test(i.e.
Bake-off) was held September 23rd to the 25th. The event was hosted by

These companies provided 16 IPP Printer implementations and 8 IPP Client
implementations. The matrix for printing from an IPP Client to Printer was
128. The final tally showed that 124 Client/Printer pairs succeeded in
printing. That gives us a success rate of 96.9%. A very impressive total
for the first attempt.
