I'd recommend reading about REST, it's pretty much the de-facto
standard for web API implementations these days.  Using this scheme,
anyone implementing a client for your API will already know where they
are at.

The HTTP verbs / URLs would look something like:

  # Returns a list of all prints (may not be applicable for you)
  GET /prints

  # Return a single print, where 123 is your unique ID
  GET /prints/123

  # Create a new print
  POST /prints

  # Update an existing print
  PUT /prints/123

  # Delete a print
  DELETE /prints/123

This leverages HTTP in the way it was designed to be used.
