Notice that the printer may have a web page of its own to change its own configuration, but reaching it is not easy as you are in different lan sections (the third number is different).
Same LAN, just different IP range.
Doug, you could just add that network -
ip addr add 192.168.1.199/24 dev eth0
Huh, I forgot that method. But better using network manager or yast, which I guess are in automatic mode.
That will make the printer (and any web-config) accessible.
Otherwise I agree with Carlos, the easiest thing is to reconfigure your printer and give it a static IP-address in the new 192.168.0.x range.
Yes, because every machine in the network using that printer is affected.
the better solution could be simply to *reset* to default the printer setup, most probably aimed to dhcp IP
This is another can of worms. AFAIK, Linux needs the printer to be always in the same IP address, so then you must reconfigure the router to assign always the same IP to the printer. Doug doesn't know how to do this and would need handholding, and we don't even know the router model and current configuration. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
