There seems to be an ongoing  issue with the HP firmware updates, where the self assigned static IP address gets reset to DHCP auto assign during the firmware upgrade process :

Original Shipped Firmware :      2020_06_03

First upgrade   :                            2021_11_22  - lost static IPv4 and defaulted to DHCP

December 2022 Upgrade :       2022_07_29 - lost static IPv4 and defaulted to DHCP

Latest 2023 upgrade  :           2023_12_06 - lost static IPv4 and defaulted to DHCP

 

Could this behaviour be changed by HP,  as I have to then go find what DHCP IP address the printer has got after upgrade and then manually go re-enter IPv4, DNS parameters to get the printer back to working condition, like to was before the F/W upgrade.

 

i.e.   Keep manually assigned user  IP information rather than purging it and resetting to DHCP.
