[Location]Enter the location of the machine. If a location has already been registered in [Device Information Settings] ([Device Management] in [Management Settings] (Settings/Registration)), the registered name is displayed.

If you select [Use AirPrint], the following settings in <TCP/IP Settings> are set to <On>.Use HTTP IPP Print Settings Use IPv4 mDNS Use IPv6 mDNS |
 |
If you change [Printer Name] that you have once specified, you may be unable to print any more from the Mac that has been able to be used for printing so far. This phenomenon occurs because <mDNS Name> (Making DNS Settings) of IPv4 is also changed automatically. In this case, add the machine to the Mac again. When AirPrint is in-use, <Use Same mDNS Name as IPv4> is fixed to <On> for the mDNS name of IPv6. Entering the printer name makes it easier to identify multiple printers that support AirPrint. |
