I found the way to print the settings and discovered that the IP address is
something arbitrary. And why the printer has an IP address built-in makes no
sense to me; that should be assigned from the network server.
Anyway, I found a Dell web page that describes how to access the printer's
built-in web server and change the IP address. I'll re-configure a laptop
and do that. PITA if you ask me. :-)
