I don't think changing IPs should be part of your problem, but you can configure your DHCP server to always give a device the same IP. I'd always suggest doing that to things that are permanently part of your network, leave random allocation to things that only visit. If your printer/scanner was first discovered by your computer automatically (as opposed to you having to manually configure everything), then it ought to do it again. Perhaps restarting printer/scanning software might retrigger things. Thus far, over many years, I'd noticed that printing & scanning software only seemed to care about device names, not fixed IPs. Though I'd be quite surprised if you couldn't configure such a HP printer/scanner to use a fixed IP within its front panel controls. What else has changed in the meantime? Was there an update to xsane? -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.71.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 28 15:37:28 UTC 2022 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
