One of two sets of tabs displays, depending on the type of connection the printer driver uses. If the printer is set up under a WSD port, it uses Web Services for Devices technology to connect to the printer. In this case, select the Web Services tab to see the printer IP address listed in the IP address field.

When using an AirPrint printer, the IP may not show up using the method above. In this case, open Applications &gt; Utilities &gt; Terminal and enter ippfind. You&#39;ll see something like ipp://yourprinter.local.:631/ipp/port1, where yourprinter is an alphanumeric expression — in this example, 829B95000000.local.
