2. Using a Network-Connected Machine
IPv6 configuration
IPv6 is supported properly only in Windows Vista or higher.
• Some features and optional goods may not be available depending on
model or country (see "Features by models" on page 7 or "Menu
overview" on page 35).
• If the IPv6 network seems to not be working, set all the network setting
to the factory defaults and try again using Clear Setting.
The machine supports the following IPv6 addresses for network printing and
managements.
• Link-local Address: Self-configured local IPv6 address (Address starts with
FE80).
• Stateless Address: Automatically configured IPv6 address by a network
router.
• Stateful Address: IPv6 address configured by a DHCPv6 server.
• Manual Address: Manually configured IPv6 address by a user.
In the IPv6 network environment, follow the next procedure to use the IPv6
address.
