We'd always recommend assigning a printer with a static IP address. Once this has been assigned, you can connect to the printer by searching the IP address. Steps are below:

Select Add a printer or scanner - The PC will scan the network for devices and the printer should come up in the list. Once it does, click it and select Add Device

If the printer does not populate, try adding it manually on the PC with the printers IP Address. First, obtain the IP address from the printer (under the network status on the printer)

 Once you have the IP Address, select The printer that I want isn't listed

Select Add a printer using a TCP/IP address or hostname and then Next

Input the IP address of the printer, e.g. 172.18.246.5 and click Next

The PC should pick up the printer. <b>If it doesn't, please contact the printer supplier or the clients IT Support Team</b>
