Port Number Allocation
Predetermined port numbers are allocated to each protocol used for communication with external devices. Be aware that a firewall blocking a port can affect printer operation.
When configuring IPv6, VPS may not be compatible due to the provider's IPv6 type. Check the type of IPv6 you want to use, and coordinate with the provider's administrator to find out what to do.
