Windows 8 - Can't update IP address for a printer
I need to assign an IP address to a printer. When clicking “configure port” error window “an error occurred during port configuration. This operation is not supported.” What do I need to do next?
Instead of Configuring port, click on 'Add Port' instead, select 'Standard TCP/IP Port' , click 'New Port' and enter the new IP address. The select this new port as the address for the printer.
What kind of printer. Normally I would assign a Printer IP address at the printer control panel. Then the Workstation will pick it up. In the case of newer HP printers, they use WSE Ports.

webservice port you cant change anything (as it is mostly auto discovered)
for an Ip port: just create a new IP port switch the printer and delete the old port.
