IPP - Can't get it to work on port 631

So I'm trying to enable IPP printing so that various anonymous guests on our wireless network can use one of the office printers that we currently have.  Server is 2008 R2, and most printers are HPs.  Regular printing works fine.

I've got IPP working over port 80 on both Win7 and OSX Clients.  This was done via connecting to <a href="http:///printers/<printername>/.printer">http://<IPaddress>/printers/<printername>/.printer  

Windows was done via the add printer wizard and entering this into the shared printer by name.
OSX was done via using the "advanced" option and then manually selecting the http IIP protocol.

So my question is - how do I get it to work over the standard port of 631?  This is mainly so that macs don't need the extra steps, I wish I could just use the "IPP" dialogue box by default.  Also, most windows instructions state to use":631" as part of the IP string, so I'm curious on why it doesn't work.

I couldn't find any configuration requirements, other than adding the role to the server.  Any ideas?
