Does the printer support ethernet connection to a router? If so, try connecting the printer to the router and setup and point the printer drivers to the IP address that the printer gets from the router.
Reivew the mfrs setup information for setting up there router.
Contact the printers mfr for help and support regarding there product.

I know the IP address of the printer, at least the IP address the printer thinks it has, and the printer works from my laptop at that IP address. I just can't see the printer from my desktop that is connected via the Ethernet to my cable modem.
