How do I find the IP address of a printer on my network? Thanks.

I don't know. How do _you_?

I use nmap sometimes. I walk up to the printer and select the print
system information option sometimes. I walk up to the printer and find
it on the on-screen config menu sometimes.

With DNS service discovery, I can sometimes find the printer by name,
and not need the IP address:

$ lpinfo --include-schemes dnssd -v
network dnssd://Brother%20HL-L6200DW%20series._ipp._tcp.local/?uuid=e3212300-80ce-11db-8000-3c2af4123123
$

That is on Linux, YMMV with other operating systems. Your lack of detail
about the printer, the network, and the OS(s) involved doesn't help.

Windows should have an nmap equivalent, maybe even called nmap
