Printing across LANs
-
Hi,
In my home I have two networks (A and B).
The printer is on LAN A along with various other servers - these servers can all ping and use the printer.
Machines on LAN B cannot ping or use the printer, but every other service works normally (e.g. RDP, network shares, FTP, web, etc.).I have the two LANs assigned to different interfaces on the firewall, with the interfaces each assigned a different IP range.
I have firewall rules in to allow any traffic, of any type, on any port, to be allowed to any target/type/port, set for both LAN A and B.Both the sources and printer have the correct default gateways set.
Any ideas?

powercycle the printer / update firmware
some models have a terrible networking stack
