To determine the pool of addresses, first determine the ip set of the router. in a command screen, type msconfig and what is the results. Normal is 192.168.x.xxx. Xs will be shown and can be different. A 192.168.x.1 is the normal router gateway address. In a web browser, type this number and you should get a login screen. Routine id is admin and password may be admin or password. If this has not been change, highly recommended to set a different password. Then look through the pages and determine where the pool set is identified. I've seen 100 to 125 and other groupings dependent on the router. My printer is set at 250 address. The when I setup the printer in the computer, I will indicate the printer is on a LAN, for there is a network cable between the router and printer. My laptops are all wifi and then can print. Each printer will have a manual setup to identify which IP it is assigned. I'm running Windows 7, 8, 10 and Linux Lite llaptops. All on wifi and all print to the same printer.
