On my Laptop=Dell latitude E6510, RAM=8Gb, GPU=GT218 NVS 3100M, CPU=i7 Q 720 @ 1.60GHz

I know ip address, but it is not fixed, it is assigned by the dhcp and it vary day by day and I cannot modify the settings of printer.

I downloaded the drivers from kyocera and installed the printer using IP address and it worked, but the IP address is changed and I had to reinstall the printer.

How can I install the printer in yast>printer>add>connection wizard???

what I have to insert and where?

Can’t you reserve the desired IP address to the printer’s MAC in the DHCP server/router?
