So all other peers on the LAN can get to the printer.

If your netmask on both sides of the connection is OK, then the problem
is at the Ethernet level. Your previous output showed a /24 on the
desktop. Can you verify that all the other peers are also in
192.168.1.0/24?

If so, next step should be trying to plug the misbehaving desktop into a
different switch port, assuming 1. you have one free, 2. you can get
someone to do that for you, as you have no physical access yourself (did
I understand that correctly?), and 3. this is a dumb switch that just
forwards between all ports, so any port is fine.
