14 Problem Solving
Unable to connect using an IPv6 address
You cannot connect to the
machine with the link-local
address.
The machine cannot connect
to a computer running
Windows OS that supports
IPv6.
A device outside the router
cannot be searched.
The Secure Watermark
feature does not function
correctly when you submit a
print job via an IPv6 network.
When SSL is enabled on
CentreWare Internet
Services, even if you specify
"http://[IPv6 address]", you
are not redirected to "https://
[IPv6 address]".
Unable to print using an IPv6 address
On an IPv6 network without a
DNS server, a computer
running Windows OS that
supports IPv6 cannot be
connected to a Windows
shared printer.
IPv6 communication cannot
be established with NetWare.
IPv6 communication cannot

Symptom
When you specify the machine's link-local address, a scope
ID must be appended to the address.
For example, when you use Internet Explorer 7 on Windows
Vista to access the address "fe80::203:baff:fe48:9010", you
must append the Ethernet adapter local area connection
number (for example, 8) for Windows Vista to the address as
follows: fe80::203:baff:fe48:9010%8
Assign a static IPv6 address to the computer running
Windows OS that supports IPv6.
Then, register the IPv6 address on the machine as host
address to allow communication.
When searching for a device outside the router via SMB,
directly specify the address. Multicasting is supported only
within a local link (FF02::1).
Use an IPv4 network for the Secure Watermark feature. The
Secure Watermark feature does not function on an IPv6
network.
When SSL is enabled, directly specify "https://[IPv6
address]".
Symptom
Register the computer name of the machine on the "hosts"
file stored on the computer running Windows OS that
supports IPv6. For example, register in the following file:
C:\Windows\system32\driver\etc\hosts
NetWare does not support IPv6 communication. Use IPv4
for NetWare.
Bonjour does not support IPv6 communication. Use IPv4 for
Bonjour.
