Well I know how to do it with debian when doing it the plain way.  When
network manager gets involved I have no idea.  I have never used it.

Given you already appear to have 2 IP addresses within the
192.168.0.0/24 subnet, I can't see how adding a 3rd could possibly make
printing more likely to work than it already is.  I think you are
looking at the wrong problem.
