cannot add network printer

Hi - hope some can help please - I am stuck! :)

I am trying to print from a Samsung S8 (and also A5) to a network printer.
I have googled options and added a few plugins. All seem to get stuck at the same point - I click add printer and it asks me to enter IP address. I enter the IP address of my print server and it then says no printer found (exact error message depending on which plugin I use).

I am using a printer connected to a print server. To print from my Windows machines on the same network, I am printing to "http://192.168.0.254:631/printers/billion" where "billion" is the name of my HP printer.

Any ideas?

TIA!
