How To Change IP Address On HP Printer?

In order to connect your HP printer to the network, it is essential that you know the IP address. The IP or the Internet Protocol address is a set of numerical codes that are dynamically allocated to the devices connected to a network. In case of HP printers, the default IP address from the factory would be 192.168.1.1, but you can change it any time. Here's what all you need to do about it:

If you have difficulties joining the printer to a network, setting it to a static IP address may solve the situation. Usually, most printers work with dynamic IP addresses, but this alters discontinuously. It makes joining the printer difficult, especially after modifying the networks. Also, giving the printer a manual IP address will help you configure the network. It is convenient when you have multiple devices joined to the same network.
