How can I get IP address of a printer which i connect directly to a network hub? -

I want to get and set a Ip address for a printer that directly connect to the network hub or router.

network printer usually come with software that detects them on the net even without knowing the ip. if that s not the case, scan your network and find a esponsive ip wich you have not asigned. you can use freeware superscan3 for that.

Assuming that it is a true network printer, you could get it from the printer. Check the user guide and see what button sequence you need to press for the printer to spit out its configuration. Pull up the configuration for the DHCP server. That should contain a list of the IP addresses assigned to each host name. If it a print server set up with a static I.P. then you have a problem. If it is working you might be able to work out the IP address form the printer port details.
