3 TCP/IP configuration To operate properly on a TCP/IP network, you must configure the HP Jetdirect print server with valid TCP/IP network configuration parameters, such as an IP address that is valid for your network. The HP Jetdirect print server supports both IPv4 and IPv6 networks simultaneously. Print server configuration for IPv4 operation remains the same as in previous HP Jetdirect products. IPv6 configuration HP Jetdirect print servers provide basic configuration capabilities for operation on an IPv6 network. For IPv6 printing services, the print server supports the following: ● IP printing (raw) using HP-proprietary TCP port 9100 ● LPD printing using standard TCP port 515 ● IPP printing using standard TCP port 631 ● FTP printing using standard TCP ports 20 and 21 The print server supports remote configuration by DHCPv6 servers and IPv6 routers. In addition, it supports remote configuration and management from a Web browser over HTTP or HTTPS. Local configuration of basic IPv6 parameters is available through the printer control panel if supported by the printer/MFP device. IPv6 address introduction An IPv6 address consists of 128 bits. The normal format of an IPv6 address is eight fields, each separated by a colon (:). Each field contains four hexadecimal digits representing 16 bits: hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh In the example, h is a hexadecimal digit 1 through 0, A through F. This is sometimes called colon hexadecimal format. Depending on the application, you can enter or display an IPv6 address using a shortened version when successive fields contain all zeros (0). You can use two colons (::) and omit leading zeros in a field. (The use of two colons to represent successive zero fields can be used only once in an address.) The following is an example IPv6 address: 2001:0DB8:0000:0000:0000:0000:0200:bb02 Using the shortened version, the example address is: 2001:DB8::200:bb02 ENWW IPv6 configuration 15

TCP/IP configuration
To operate properly on a TCP/IP network, you must configure the HP Jetdirect print server with valid
TCP/IP network configuration parameters, such as an IP address that is valid for your network.
The HP Jetdirect print server supports both IPv4 and IPv6 networks simultaneously. Print server
configuration for IPv4 operation remains the same as in previous HP Jetdirect products.
IPv6 configuration
HP Jetdirect print servers provide basic configuration capabilities for operation on an IPv6 network. For
IPv6 printing services, the print server supports the following:
●
IP printing (raw) using HP-proprietary TCP port 9100
●
LPD printing using standard TCP port 515
●
IPP printing using standard TCP port 631
●
FTP printing using standard TCP ports 20 and 21
The print server supports remote configuration by DHCPv6 servers and IPv6 routers. In addition, it
supports remote configuration and management from a Web browser over HTTP or HTTPS. Local
configuration of basic IPv6 parameters is available through the printer control panel if supported by the
printer/MFP device.
IPv6 address introduction
An IPv6 address consists of 128 bits. The normal format of an IPv6 address is eight fields, each
separated by a colon (:). Each field contains four hexadecimal digits representing 16 bits:
hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh
In the example,
h
is a hexadecimal digit 1 through 0, A through F. This is sometimes called
colon
hexadecimal
format.
Depending on the application, you can enter or display an IPv6 address using a shortened version when
successive fields contain all zeros (0). You can use two colons (::) and omit leading zeros in a field. (The
use of two colons to represent successive zero fields can be used only once in an address.) The following
is an example IPv6 address:
2001:0DB8:0000:0000:0000:0000:0200:bb02
Using the shortened version, the example address is:
2001:DB8::200:bb02
