MAJOR CORRECTION: Do not do the above steps. I can't believe I
confused Static DNS with Static IP Address, but I did. Aside from
deleting the above two steps, my directions seem OK. While adding the
printer as a Static DNS will not kill things (at least in my case), it
will slow down Internet access as your computer continually goes to
the printer for Domain Name Service -- which of course it doesn't
have!
Sorry.
