HP Recommended
Product: HP OfficeJet Pro 6968 All-in-One Printer
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

For some reason the printer acquired an address different than the network address.  Network IP 10.0.10.1 Acquired address 192.168.10.208.  When try to print I have to "connect" manually.  When I try to change the I.P. address the i.p. address manually it will not let me enter the 10.0.10.1 address, even with IP6 turned off.  When I try to use Hp-smart it tells me that the printer is turned off/ offline.  HELP!
