You don't need ddns, so much as a fixed address in the DHCP server
configuration. Get your printer's Ethernet address, and add a host entry in
your /etc/dhcpd.conf file like this one:

host kyocera1 {
        hardware ethernet 00:c0:ee:62:7D:bb;
        fixed-address 192.168.168.246;
}

Then you can set up an A record for the printer in your DNS the usual way.

Best,
