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
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. Per, you rock! That sure beats trying to reset the address at the

Ok. Be aware that the command above is not permanent, has to be done on every boot, and on every system or machine that accesses that printer. You could do: ip addr add 192.168.1.199/24 dev eth0 Then point your firefox to the address of the printer that was printed in the status page: http://192.168.1.whatever You should reach a setup web page of the printer itself (I'm guessing it has one) and in there you can probably change the printer address to be 192.161.0.10, for instance, in a manner easier than the printer panel. The setup page you printed should say if this local web page exists. It would be on port 80. If it exists but is disabled, you should be able to enable it in the panel. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.
