Our approach to v6 deployment has always been about enabling capability
where it is available. The trick is then to have the right tools to
manage and monitor it.
The interesting thing about printers is that even quite low end network
printers (like the HP Laserjet I have) have had IPv6 for quite a while.
You can even configure DHCPv6 on the one I'm using.
Just look for capabilities/features as you refresh equipment and it
makes things that little easier.
