Hello,

I am having a problem with the printer showing up twice on my domain network.

 

The printer has a static IP, is setup on the File and Printer (FAP) server and is shared from there.

 

when using a dektop to add a printer, it lists the Sharename from the FAP Server and the HostName (NPI0ED34D) that is programmed in the printer. (See image below)

Any idea how to turn this off so it doesn't appear anymore?
