Print On Lan While On Vpn


Recommended Posts

My wife connects to work through a VPN. Our home office has a broadband router with four computers, an HP and Netgear print servers. My wife can print from her laptop as long as she is not connected to the VPN. However, she would like to be able to print when connected to the VPN. If she stays connected to VPN, she can queue print jobs but must cancel VPN to start printing. She just had her laptop replaced and was able to print on our LAN while on VPN with her old one.

Any suggestions as to how to configure her system so she can print on the network printers while remaining connected to the VPN?

Thanks!

Hi sethook,

Welcome to Besttechie, my name is Tony.

What version of windows do you have?

Windows XP. The problem was resolved by the IT folks at Sun Micro. They control what goes on within the PCs the employees have so I usually don't get involved with her problems. Sorry for not marking this thread as resolved.
