   Read it again?

   Did you? (Clearly, _I_ read the User Manual, because otherwise I
wouldn't misspell "Reserved" as "Reserves" here.) Try page 114?

   After you define one or more address reservations, you might need to
shut down the router and your other devices, and then restart
everything, before those new reservations will be effective.

   You lost me. With my weak psychic powers, I can't see what you did,
or what happened when you did it.

   "will not accept" is not a useful problem description. It does not
say what you did. It does not say what happened when you did it. As
usual, showing actual actions (commands) with their actual results
(error messages, LED indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague
descriptions or interpretations.

antinode It is wonderful to know the definition of the terms in technical manuals. It was very kind and helpful for your enlightening me to translate the terminology.

I am sad to learn you missed my telepathy (injecting humor) with my explanation of Windows 10 not recognizing a new port reconfiguration. Perhaps it has little to nothing to do with correcting this problem.

I will read this again using your very helpful suggestions. I sincerely appreciate your time and effort to help with this printer issue.

If I have additional questions, I will let you know. Also, when the problem is solved, I will let you know.

Thank you again.
