Any suggestions welcome.:)
I'm not exactly sure what you're tying to accomplish of or if this
helpful, but it should be pretty quick & easy to figure out the printers
ip addr without
having to login to your OpenWRT router.
You can either get the MAC addr OUI, Organizational Unique Identifier
from a tag on the printer itself or you can look it up on the web,
https://www.adminsub.net/mac-address-finder/Brother . It's the first 6
alphanumeric characters.
If the printer has physical network connectivity, you should be able run
the "arp -a" from the command line on a computer on the same lan segment
and get the mac to ip addr mapping for the printer.
e.g.
~$ arp -a
