A network printer may stop responding when its DHCP address changes but Windows still sends jobs to an old TCP/IP port. Compare the current printer report with the saved Windows port before reinstalling anything.
Get both addresses
Print a fresh network status page from the printer and note its current IPv4 address. In Windows Printer properties, inspect the Ports tab if the queue uses a Standard TCP/IP Port. A WSD or IPP queue may show a different kind of port, so don't edit it just because it lacks a familiar address.
Correct only the mismatch
If the TCP/IP port points to an old address, update the port or add the printer again using its current address. Print a Windows test page before testing the original application. Avoid an arbitrary static IP that could collide with another device.
Prevent another change
On a managed network, ask the administrator about a router DHCP reservation for the printer. A failed ping is not conclusive; some devices ignore ICMP. The printer's report and test print provide better evidence.
