Technical Details

what runs on :10631

TCP/10631 is assigned to Printopia Serve. Printopia acts as an AirPrint bridge: clients discover print destinations using Bonjour and send print jobs through the Mac. AirPrint commonly uses IPP, but 10631 is a vendor-assigned port, not the standard IPP port 631; the exact wire protocol and framing used on this listener are not publicly established here. Do not assume that finding TCP/10631 means a generic IPP server is listening.

security overview

A reachable Printopia service may allow clients to submit print jobs to destinations exposed by the Mac. It is intended for trusted local-network use, not direct internet exposure; restrict access with host and network firewalls. The service's authentication and encryption behavior on this port is not sufficiently documented to rely on either.
