Help Printing to VLAN

[Taunt9930]

Hi All,

I've done a lot of searching, and tried various things, but none of the previous examples seem to be exactly like mine (although, I would suggest mine is super-simple!)

Bottom Line, I have an HP Printer (8720) on an IOT VLAN. I want to be able to Print from my main LAN.

• I have firewall rules in place so my LAN can see everything on my IOT VLAN
  I can get to the Printer Web Interface using its IP
  I cannot print or add the Printer through windows, even using it's know IP.

I tried installing os-mdns-repeater and activated it, listening on LAN and IOT VLAN. Now when I search for my printer, I at least see the 'Scanner' part of it. Still no luck with discovering the printer.

I'm assuming I am missing a firewall rule or something, but have quickly got confused in my searching. If so, I assume there is a rule I can set-up to allow printer discovery/printing from the LAN, but not so as I might as well just put it on my LAN in the first place?

I'd appreciate it if someone could help - hopefully a really, really easy one for someone to quickly knock off :-)

Thanks.

Firewall, Log files, Live view

Filter on block and your LAN workstation as the source to see if anything to your printer is getting blocked. Try printing both by its IP address and its name.

Thanks - I'll give it another try. I did try watching the firewall and didn't see anything that stuck out - I suspect it is something from Printer being blocked, as the PC cannot discover it. I was hoping someone had a tried and tested setup for an HP printer as they are pretty common!

I'll keep bashing away at the logs.
