remote printing while connected to vpn
-
Is there a way to remotely print to a printer that is on the vpn network of the vpn server?
-
@adrianp918 sure - just print to its IP. Discovery something like airprint isn't going to work

If your VPN client (on the remote device) uses the pfSense resolver as its DNS source, you could create a host name on pfSense for this printer.
from then on you can use (example) :
"printer.your-pfsense-domain.tld"
as that will resolve to the LAN IP of the printer.
