It was SUCH a palaver getting my Epson SX535WD installed as a wifi printer that I do not wish to have to uninstall it or the drivers and try and do it all over again.
You probably need to figure out which server is providing DHCP for your machines (and I mean that in the metaphorical sense, because it's probably a router or other boundary device that's doing the job). You need to figure out how to do a static IP address assignment for your printers, because if renumbering occurs (and it will, periodically as leases come and go and address assignments shift around) it will mess things up. Assigning them a static IP will prevent that from happening and keep your printers available when and as you need them. HTH, --Ed-- PS: if you can figure out which device is handling DHCP resolution (ipconfig /all will tell you its IP address, but you may have to figure things out from there. In my case, it's the first address on my private Class C IP network, 192.168.0.1) you can look up the UI manual, and it will tell you how to configure static IPs.
You really need to go a bit further with this. You need to limit the router's DHCP server range of addresses it hands out so you can't get the IP address clashes you are seeing. In my case I restrict the DHCP range to top out at.100 and I set fixed addresses to.200 and above. This way everyone plays nice. If you really can't fix the DHCP range, DON'T set the fixed addresses down low as this is asking for trouble. For example, set the printer to 192.168.1.200. The odds of getting clashes then will be very low, then.

The printer requires a means of communicating with the computer so it can read and transmit from the hard-drive to the print function. The printer itself does not have a hard-drive and cannot perform without a means of viewing your document. Bringing a printer online means it can print documents without a direct connection to the computer. The document is transmitted through the remote connection while the printer reads and prints. In order to have a printer online, it requires a network connection.
In some cases, a hard line ethernet connection to the internet is used but many printers also offer WI-FI as a network connection option. Setting up the printer is simple for a single computer, but an encrypted and secure network requires more work to bring the printer online.
Connecting to the WI-FI Network You send a document to print but nothing happens. So how do you find your printer queue and push the print command through? First, you need to connect the printer to the same WI-FI network as your computer.
Otherwise, the print task you created doesn't have a printer or it will send to a different printer than intended on the network. The printer itself has a simple menu where you can access the available WI-FI networks. Make sure you connect to the correct network.
Go back to your computer and you should see the printer as available. Click Print on the document, select the printer and push through the task. This will send it to the printer queue and execute the task. Connecting Through Ethernet An ethernet connection is similar to WI-FI in that you are simply bringing the printer online and connecting it to a network.
To do this, you simply plug the hard-line cord into your internet port and voila, it's online. If you are operating in a basic network without a firewall, press Print on the document and select the printer. If you have a firewall and the printer is not approved on your network, you must install it on the network by following the prompts and entering the network key or password. Hiblow Hp 80 Manual there.
