You actually don't need to change anything on the printer unless the new
service uses a different IP addressing scheme and the printer is a static
IP on the old scheme. Usually you administer network printers by opening a
browser and going to their IP address. An example: let's say your printer
is assigned 192.168.1.200. In the addressbar of your browser (perhaps IE),
you'd type: http://192.168.1.200 [enter]. This would bring you to the
configuration utility for your printer where you could change it's IP,
wireless key, etc.
