@Huskylady Welcome to HP Community!

 

I understand that you would like to change the printer's name.

 

 

When you install a new printer, Windows typically names it after the manufacturer or model. You can rename by following the below given steps:

  1. Press Windows key and type Devices and Printers in search box and hit enter.
  2. Right-click a printer that need to renamed, and then click Printer properties.
  3. Click the General tab, and then type the new name in the text box.

Or you can change the printer using the printer EWS page.
