Unable to print using an IPv6 address
Other problems on IPv6 addresses
Symptom Remedy
On an IPv6 network without a DNS
server, a computer running
Windows OS that supports IPv6
cannot be connected to a
Windows shared printer.
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
Symptom Remedy
Unable to search devices with IPv6
addresses in UPnP.
In an IPv6 environment, use Function Discovery of Web Services on
Devices (WSD).
In an IPv6 network with no DNS
server installed, authentication fails
if an SMB authentication server is
specified using the computer
name.
Directly specify the IPv6 address to specify the computer name of an
authentication server.
IPv6 addresses are not correctly
recorded on output job logs.
Use an IPv4 network for correct logging.
