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 or Menu overview). 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.


	Accessing menus may differ from model to model (see Accessing the menu). It may be necessary to press OK to navigate to lower-level menus for some models.

Select (Menu) > Network > TCP/IP (IPv6) > IPv6 Activate on the control panel.

Or select Setup> Machine Setup > Next > Network Setup > TCP/IP (IPv6) > IPv6 Activate on the touch screen.
Select On and press OK.
Turn the machine off and turn it on again.


	When you install the printer driver, do not configure both IPv4 and IPv6. We recommend to configure either IPv4 or IPv6.

If you have a DHCPv6 server on your network, you can set one of the following options for default dynamic host configuration.


	Accessing menus may differ from model to model (see Accessing the menu). It may be necessary to press OK to navigate to lower-level menus for some models.

Select (Menu) > Network > TCP/IP (IPv6) > DHCPv6 Config on the control panel.

Or select Setup> Machine Setup > Next > Network Setup > TCP/IP (IPv6) > DHCPv6 Config on the touch screen.
Press OK to select the required value you want.
- DHCPv6 address: Always use DHCPv6 regardless of router request.
- DHCPv6 Off: Never use DHCPv6 regardless of router request.
- Router: Use DHCPv6 only when requested by a router.

Access a web browser, such as Internet Explorer, from Windows. Enter the machine IP address (http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) in the address field and press the Enter key or click Go.
If it’s your first time logging into SyncThru™ Web Service you need to log-in as an administrator. Type in the below default ID and password. We recommend you to change the default password for security reasons.

Click TCP/IPv6 on the left pane of the website.
Check the IPv6 Protocol check box to activate IPv6.
Click the Apply button.

Turn the machine off and turn it on again.


	You can also set the DHCPv6. To manually set the IPv6 address: Check the Manual Address check box. Then, the Address/Prefix text box is activated. Enter the rest of the address (e.g.,:3FFE:10:88:194::AAAA. “A” is the hexadecimal 0 through 9, A through F).

Start a web browser, such as Internet Explorer, that supports IPv6 addressing as a URL.
Select one of the IPv6 addresses (Link-local Address, Stateless Address, Stateful Address, Manual Address) from Network Configuration Report (see Printing a network configuration report).
- 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.

Enter the IPv6 addresses (e.g.,: http://[FE80::215:99FF:FE66:7701]).


	Address must be enclosed in '[ ]' brackets.
