Any pending firmware updates for the printer?

What is the model number for the printer. Is it configured with a static IP address?
Is each computer printing directly to the printer?

Thnx for repling. model no of printer is mfp1510P. yes it is configured with static ip address.

actually it is network printer. so it is connected via ethernet network.

The model number does not look correct. I could not find a MFP 1510P printer.

As to the second question. Is each computer setup to print directly to the HP?

Can you print test pages from each computer successfully?
