      Hello there.

      I have several vlans configured on my XG-7100 pfsense router/firewall. I created rules/policies for myself in the managment vlan that gave me access to all resources (printers,nas,proxmox,etc) on all vlans. The rules works as expected except printing. I could access web-interfaces of all brothers printers but I could print not a document. It always failed.

      then I tried a more specific rule to one of the brother printers but still failed

        @wintok what specific brother do you have? I have brother on a different vlan and have no issues printing to it.

        The specific rule is not needed that is for sure.. What is the full order of you rules? Do you have any rules in floating? If you can access the web gui, but not print - that pretty much points to those ports not involved?

        Or are you trying to find the printer via airprint or some discovery that doesn't work across vlans?

        If you know the IP of the printer, just setup your print driver to directly point to that IP.
