Really? It does not respond on a normal IPv6 address? Okay, that is most unusual. It would mean it cannot be reached over a router.
On some IoT, the only available address for the initial configuration, is the link-local address. That might make some sense, but as James said, not intended for users. The fact that LL is not routable really says it all.
This might also be partly Microsoft's fault. They had their "HomeGroup" network that was intended for simple setup and used link local addresses. If that printer was built for that, then they wouldn't necessarily use other IPv6 addresses.
It is impossible to write and configure an IPv6 on that printer. It is just possible it autoconfigures (DHCP6?) from the router, but mine doesn't. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)
