Printer and Computer have different ip addresses

I have a Mac running OS 10.6 with an ip address of 192.168.1.2  and I am trying to connect it to an hp deskjet 3054 j610. The printer shows ip 192.168.1.7.  Can anyone tell me how to change the ip on my printer so the two can find each other?  I tried plugging the printer into the back of my router (netgear) but that did nothing.  

Just like houses on the same street, devices on a network MUST have different IP addresses.  SInce they have the same structure (192.168.1.X), they are on the same network.
Type the printer's IP into a web browswer.  Can you see the internal settings of the printer?

Restart your Mac.
Reset the printing system:
- Go to System Preferences > Print & Scan
- Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
- Select the plus sign to re-add a printer. Select the Defualt tab on the top of the window. Look for the printer, select it and then next to the "Use" pulldown, select the printer model (not AirPrint). Wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.
