Thanks! I started a new job where I have to add peoples printers to the network and I can’t some of them to work but I think now with this you saved me
If your printer has an Ethernet connection or is wireless, it will have an IP address. You will need to get it from the on screen menu if it has it or by printing out a printer configuration page.
I got a printer from someone but I don’t know the up address for it and I do not have it connected yet bc it’s new to me how the heck am I supposed to figure it out
You should be able to print out a configuration page with the IP address by going to the menu on the printer itself or pressing a certain key combination. You might have to look up how to do it. If you printer has an actual menu screen on it, look for network settings and see if you can find it.
You can find your printers IP address by printing out a configuration page from the printer or going to its networking settings. It most likely wont be the same as in the example.
You will need to print out the network configuration from your printer itself to find its IP address. You might also be able to find it from the menus on the printer itself.
It might be going to sleep which many printers tend to do. If it's an HP, then you can try to change the sleep settings. czcams.com/video/pdqZ1FPmNNA/video.html
@@JohnS-um3lm It might have a sleep mode as well. If you are using it wirelessly that can be it too since ever wireless printer I have ever dealt with seems to have connectivity issues!
@@OnlineComputerTips in control panel it says the printer has a driver problem but when I updated the driver it didn’t change anything. I’ll have to uninstall it and reinstall it?
It's the IP address assigned to the printer, assuming its a network or wireless printer that is capable of having an IP address. You can find its IP address by printing out the configuration page from the printer itself.
Start on page 77 from this link and see if you can get the information you need. You might also need to find it from the wireless setup menu on the printer. cdn.cnetcontent.com/d7/1e/d71e570e-b85b-4c8f-8261-24c84a8a6e55.pdf
Can't for the life of me find answers on setting up a wireless printer with a WiFi Mesh network. WTF should be filled into the printer's "Subnet Mask" and "Default Gateway" when I set it up with a static IP in its Network menu??? Nobody seems to have the answer to this.
The subnet mask should be the same as you have on the computer you are connecting to it with (ipconfig command) assuming the printer is on the same network if you have more than one subnet. You most likely don't need a gateway address since the traffic from the printer is not leaving your network, unless you have other subnets connected to the network that have computers you want to use this printer with. You can just add the gateway that your computer uses too.
@@OnlineComputerTips thanks for your reply on this - I do appreciate it. But I actually got it right shortly after commenting here. I set the printer back to DHCP and looked at what was auto-assigned in order to confirm the subnet is the same as what I had put in when trying to set up static IP for it, and then also saw that the gateway IP is set as exactly what the main Deco Mesh Unit's IP was (serving as the router). It was then clear that my gateway was the main thing I probably had wrong. So when I confirmed those two, I just decided on an IP for the printer and then updated its IP on the computer. All working perfect since then.
@@OnlineComputerTips Thanks! My printer can't be configured via web interface. I can print a status page and hope the next time around the IP is still the same. I do assign an IP address in the router, but there are times the printer still doesn't get it - or my operating system.
@@bernardmueller5676 You should be able to assign an IP address via the buttons on the printer. Either way, the IP address should stay the same until you restart the printer. Even then, many DHCP enabled devices will try and get the same IP address they had before when their lease is up.
You saved the day! My mother was going crazy about her printer not working and your video helped. Thank you!
I have been driving myself nuts with the setup software and WPS for hours. I am so glad I found you! Thank you and God Bless!
There must have been a dozen misleading wastes of time. Thank you very much for making it so easy.
I know what you men about those kinds of videos!

Awsome help sir,thanku very much indeed,steve from the uk😊
if I'm using a printer with a USB connection, there is no IP address; how do I find and allocate a valid IP address for the printer then?
If your printer has an Ethernet connection or is wireless, it will have an IP address. You will need to get it from the on screen menu if it has it or by printing out a printer configuration page.
Any Printer Connect to the Ip Address

Im currently trynna print a mother days card and idk my ip asress and h cant find it :,(
You can usually go to the printer itself and have it print out a configuration page and look for the network settings.
Thank you so much for this
How do you go to the printer yo get it to print out your ip address?
From the buttons\screen on the printer itself, you should be able to print out a configuration page that will show its IP address.
would you plz explain how did you get the ip address for printer is 192.168.1.20
You can find your printers IP address by printing out a configuration page from the printer or going to its networking settings. It most likely wont be the same as in the example.
@@OnlineComputerTips thank you but is there any way we can find the IP address of our printer using command prompt?
@@muhammadasif4916 You can use the Get-Printer command in PowerShell to show the IP address of your printer.
Finding the printer's IP is the most crucial part of this guide and it's rarely shown in all of these guide videos.
I have windows 7 and i dont know how to find printer ip...please help me

@@OnlineComputerTips i found it on the printer menu
@@OnlineComputerTips thsnks
Thank you! As soon as I did this the printer started spitting out my document.
Very helpful
Is it a usb printer ?
It was a wireless printer. You can only do this on a wireless or ethernet attached printer.
thanks
My printer goes off line all the time even though it’s on. When I pinged the ip address it says request timed out. Now what?
It might be going to sleep which many printers tend to do. If it's an HP, then you can try to change the sleep settings.

Printer ip how to find
You can find it from the printer menu screen or print out a configuration page. The process will vary depending on your printer.
Спасибо сэр!
And the next time you boot the computer the IP address has changed... So sad.
Rebooting your computer wont change the IP address of the printer. Restarting the printer might change its IP address depending how its configured.
