Retrieve an IPv6 Address
A printer on an IPv6 network can be configured to use one or more of the following methods,
depending on how the network is set up:
 Link Local IPv6 address: The printer and PC clients are restricted to the same subnet. Link
local is enabled automatically when IPv6 is enabled and offers the best security for your
network.
 DHCPv6: A DHCPv6 server is externally configured to give out an IPv6 address.
 Stateless Address AutoConfiguration (SLAAC): One or more routers with IPv6 enabled on the
subnet give out a subnet prefix that allows access to IP addresses.
 Manual IPv6 Address: The printer has a designated IPv6 address on a specified subnet. The
address does not change without manual intervention. This is similar to an IPv4 static IP
address.
The method used can be enabled or disabled using the LCD Configuration menu or the Printer
Dashboard. Refer to the Printer Dashboard Help for more information about enabling IPv6.
To display an IPv6 address using the Status menu, do the following.
1. Begin with the printer in Ready status. Press the U
