Using the Operation Panel 4-55
Network (Network settings)
This printer supports TCP/IP and TCP/IP (IPv6) protocols.
IP is an abbreviation for Internet Protocol. This printer routinely uses the
TCP/IP (IPv4) protocol, but provides a separate setting for the next-
generation IP, IPv6.
TCP/IP (IPv4) uses 32-bit IP addresses, but the rapid growth in the
number of Internet users has resulted in a shortage of IP addresses. IPv6
was developed to expand the range of available IP addresses by using
128-bit IP addresses.
The options available in the Network settings are as follows:
• TCP/IP (Enable/Disable TCP/IP)
• IPv4 Setting (TCP/IP IPv4 settings)
• IPv6 Setting (TCP/IP IPv6 settings)
