About the IP v. 6 address

This printer can have up to seven IP v. 6 addresses of the following types. (Only one address can be registered manually.) IP v. 6 communication allows you to use multiple IP v. 6 addresses simultaneously.

1. Start the Remote UI, and then log in as Administrator.

3. Select [Network] from the [Preferences] menu.

4. Click [TCP/IP Settings].

5. Click [Edit...] under [IPv6 Settings].

6. Select the [Use IPv6] check box.

7. Specify the stateless address.

Check the [Use Stateless Address] check box when using a stateless address.

Caution

Stateless Address Retention

After the [Use Stateless Address] check box is selected and the printer is restarted, the stateless address is displayed automatically. This stateless address is discarded when the printer is turned OFF.

* Using the DNS Dynamic Update function, by registering the [Host Name] and [Domain Name] to the DNS server, the printer's IP address can be used without being fixed.

If you select the [Register Manual Address] check box, a manual address is registered to the DNS server.
