Hi, I had a printer stolen during my move to Kansas City and I am looking for any options I have to track it down using an IP, MAC address or its https:// location number. Any suggestions or recommendations would be helpful. Thank you.

@dsquezly, Welcome to HP Support Community!
Unless you placed/hid a tracking device on the printer, there is no built-in way to track it. Printers do not typically have tracking devices built-in as a part of the normal hardware.
This is a case that must be conducted by your local police force or similar authority that provides theft recovery services.
It may or may not be a "lost cause", though I would certainly report it to the authorities - if they do find a cache of printers somewhere and yours is with them, you may get it back or at least help prove the thieves are in possession of your property.
I hope that answers your concern adequately. Let me know!
