Changing SSH IP address in developer mode

When my phone is connected to my PC via USB and an SSH session is running, my printers print dialog page is very slow to react when called for printing, even producing a "not responding" notice in the head of the print dialog window. As soon as I remove the USB from my Jolla1, the printers dialog springs to life and is operable as expected.

My computer, Jolla1 and printer are all connected everyday and in constant use. It's a real PITA to unplug the USB just to let the print dialog function correctly.

I've tried changing the IP address in Developer Mode, set a new puTTY profile and assigned the new IP address, but I still end up not getting connected, the puTTY screen just stays black/blank.

How do I actually go about changing/removing the existing IP address on my Jolla1 to create a new IP address?

Also, do I have to stick within 192.168.. ~ what is the lowest/highest ip range I can use

Changing SSH IP address in developer mode

EDIT: Thanks @Mario @coderus for hints/clues - my problem was solved by simply removing Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro DC (which had expired) and replaced it with a standard free Adobe Acrobat - conflict gone, now my print dialog page opens when my Jolla1 is connected via SSH........weird.
