We have in our future plans an idea to distribute the HPLIP solution. For example, having printers connected to a server and an administration interface (hp-toolbox, etc) running on a client. Also, it was our hope that having well defined socket ports would make integration with SELinux easier. We wanted to register the port numbers so that there would be no possibility of conflicting with another software package.

Why did anyone go to the trouble of registering IANA port numbers for
services which are only local?

Why not just use unix domain sockets?  Like this:

[hpiod]
socket=/var/run/hplip/hpiod.socket
[hpssd]
socket=/var/run/hplip/hpssd.socket
