Switch printer between USB and WiFi

Am I missing some easy way to switch between a wifi and a usb connection for a HP 6510 printer. The customer wants to move it periodically off site for printing duty via usb but most of the time it will be in the home and using wifi. It works fine over wifi, but if you just plug in the USB cable (and turn the wifi off to simulate being off site), Windows 10 creates one or more new printers and it's very confusing to tell the customer how to switch back and forth.
