I think that I've discovered why I cannot communicate with the Dell C1760nw
printer. Using the printer's control panel I printed out a page of its
settings and noticed that it has an apparently hard-wired IP address of
169.254.98.111. No wonder I can't ping it using the LAN IP address!

However, when I ping that address I see this:

$ ping 169.254.98.111
PING 169.254.98.111 (169.254.98.111) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 74.42.148.191 icmp_seq=1 Destination Net Unreachable
...

I've no idea where the 74.42.148.191 address originates.

Has anyone ideas how I can change that IP address to one that's on my LAN?
