AnswermarcuslinuxCC BY-SA 4.0A safe way to narrow this down is to change one variable at a time. **Likely cause:** The printer received a new IP while Windows still uses the old standard TCP/IP port. **What I would try:** Reserve the printer address in DHCP, update or recreate the TCP/IP port and avoid WSD discovery for a fixed office printer. If this is a production system, test the change during a maintenance window.
