It also comes up in my Routers Device List
I thought I was helping by explaining the differences... but apparently not.
The OP asked how - using a remote viewing tool - he/she could find a remote printer's IP address if the Web Services tab didn't show up (or didn't show the IP address). This made it clear (to me) that the OP understands where to look for the information, i.e. understands about printers. (The OP also has a similar query here about how to determine whether a remote printer is connected via a network or USB... and PowerShell's Get-Printer command can answer that too. It's also quicker and easier than drilling down through a printer's 'property' sheets.)
If the Web Services tab doesn't appear for a networked printer then it's not using WSD, it's using TCP/IP... so the Get-Printer command will show the IP address. If the Web Services tab does appear but doesn't show the IP address (as it should) then pinging the printername (obtained using the Get-Printer command) should return the IP address). So.. one command or possibly two to get the answer to the OP's question.
Sorry I couldn't make it simpler... but I believe I answered the OP's question and that was the purpose of my replies.
(There is another way of determining the IP address from the printer's 'property' sheets but it's longer and slightly more complex. To explain it properly I would have to reconfigure one of my printers to use WSD in order to take screenshots... so there's that as well. )
Mine just shows a mac address. But my bigger point is I've not seen anything where no matter the device always shows an IP Address.
Your HP Envy 4500 shows an IP address, my Wi-Fi XP-960 Epson printer shows mac address. And I don't think it's brand specific, but probably connection protocol used.
Anyway I can get mine from my router's online panel. I was just asking if there was anything more clear cut.
I use a static IP address for the printer as connection very rarely drops so it's not showing in my router.
