>Up until a couple of hours ago, I was able to print from my computer to the wireless HP printer. I think it all started with the printer being jammed with paper. I cleared the paper jam but now I no longer can print. The PC says "cannot communicate with the printer"
>I checked that the printer IP is 192.168.1.111. And on the PC I went to the HP utility that is designed to update the printer IP. I enter this IP and the HP utility says that it found the printer. I click on Save.

>Strange thing that when I ping 192.168.1.111 the Reply comes from 192.168.1.113 (113 vs 111).
>And then again, I reboot my printer and ping works.

Perhaps there is something else on the network with that same IP address? Orsome needed ports are forwarded in a router to the wrong IP? -- just guesses on my part...
