Printer

Hello together,

I come to you because I have a funny situation.

Setup:
Network A: 192.168.2.0/24 (clients)
Network B: 192.168.3.0/24 (printer)

The printer is in network B - but the clients are in network A.

Problem:
- If I print via network A to Network B, it does not work.
- When I print over network B, it works fine

Setting:
- I made a firewall rule that the clients in network A can access the printer network B (Source: Network Subnet / Port: Any / Destination: Printer)
- The printer assignment is done via IP address

Remark:
- Both on mobile and Windows 10 I have the problem.
- Firewall Sophos UTM - newest version


Why does it not work? Is there anything I can adjust on the firewall?

Best regards

  •   no, the firewall logs show that it is not blocked. I tried it with a return firewall rule, but the problem still persists.

      Here you have the logs - i have tried over the mobil (Port 161) or over the laptop (port 80). but is still not printed


    What can I do to solve the problem?

    Best regards

  • Sorry, but neither port 80 nor port 161 are used for printing.
    Mostly port 80 is used to access the printer's configuration page, port 161 is SNMP ... some printerdrivers use it for a status query.

    First try to ping the printer. Successful?

    BTW... your client IP (10.242.3.2) is not from any of the subnets listed above...
    i would think you come from VPN currently.

    ... and the destination IP (192.168.230.240) is possibly incorrect ... (not Network B: 192.168.3.0/24 (printer))
