Would recommend using printer front panel menu "Display network settings"

 

If not, by printing a Configuration/Network configuration page and keeping a note of it

What is the issue you are trying to solve?  If the printer's IP address is changing at power failures or other disruptions it would be best to assign a static IP address.  This video may help set a static IP address:

@DQueen91

 

This website specializes in providing free and easy-to-use programs to do all sorts of clever things:

Nirsoft 

 

One of the programs available:

Wireless Network Watcher v2.10

 

Works in recent versions of Windows, including Windows 10.

 

Once the program is installed, find the executable (program) in

C:\Program Files (x86)\NirSoft\Wireless Network Watcher

 

Right-Click on the executable (program) and Send-to your Desktop to create a shortcut.

 

Your Printer will be listed (in column) Device Name - the name of the device (printer) will start with "HP".

 

If you like, take a look at the other programs in the Network category, too. 

 

Disclaimer:  

I have absolutely nothing to do with the Nirsoft folks -- I have used a number of their programs.  

 

 

 

Thank you for participating in the HP Community Forum.
