Just a note for those saying that using static IPs aren't the recommended method. I have two Pis that get moved from my house to a hotel that are used as part of convention registration system. Not only will they be used with TWO DIFFERENT routers, but one of them is set up to run a replicated database of the other. So...because I have a different router (and a backup router in case of failure) that gets used "on the road" AND the replicated database structure REQUIRES (last I looked) a known IP address to work, host based static IPs are pretty much necessary.
Now if MariaDB starts being able to have replicated databases connect by hostname (instead of by IP address), I could drop the static IP addesses.
Since there are also printers involved, in order not to have to reconfigure everything every time equipment is moved, the printers get static IP addresses, too. But that gets taken care of in the printer interface.
