:bilge, thanks for reporting this!
Can you still reproduce? When I follow the STR, I see an error message: "This isn't a standard webpage, so you can't take a screenshot of it", which seems like an expected result.
Marking as P5 for now

I honestly cannot tell if you're being serious or not. I'm guessing you just clicked the link expecting it to magically do something despite the fact that you're on a different network for which that page almost certainly will not exist.
This should have already been clear, but for the avoidance of doubt: you must navigate to an IPv6 page THAT ACTUALLY EXISTS ON YOUR NETWORK and then try to screenshot it.
Of course you cannot screenshot the Firefox built-in "The connection has timed out" message if you try to navigate to a non-existent address, but that is not what this issue is about whatsoever. First deploy a basic web page on an IPv6 server and load it into the browser using its IPv6 address to reproduce the issue.

This was the original issue so should not be closed as duplicate.

We closed this one and kept the other as it had more information for identifying and addressing the issue, and less snark.
