How do you find an ip address for a dell 922 printer?

Typical printers do not have an IP address, unless it is shared on a network with either a print box, or throught a CAT5 cable directly into the printer. If your printer has CAT5 connection, the IP address will be in the setup menu of the printer. If you are using a print box, you'll have to refer to the manual of the print box, as there are many different types.
