Below is a topology of normal network and taken as example in this guidance.
The Default IP of the print server is 192.168.0.10. Before doing the settings, please prepare the IP of the router. Normally, it’s the gateway of your computer.

Then click Network.
Step 2 Go to Ethernet, Advanced, select Manually on Configure IPv4 field and set the IP address & Subnet Mask like the following. Click Apply button.
