I have a printer on a network and via my firewall and active activity it is showing that it is trying to send out a ping to a 189.0.3.30 address and my firewall is blocking the ICMP. Why is my printer doing this.

11:11:11.512 - Alert - Intrusion Prevention - IPS Prevention Alert: ICMP Destination Unreachable (Port Unreachable), SID: 310, Priority: Low - 189.0.3.30, 123, X1 - 192.168.200.30, 32824, X0 -

Is this an HP printer? Sometimes the printers use a "mask" and it appears its looking for a machine / server that is pointed to a DNS of 189.0.3.30 is this a server on the network?
