Enhanced Fire firewall blocking Printer on private network

AVG Protection
1

Hi Community

Unfortunately not something new! I'm having to use win defender because AVG is blocking my printer even though it is set to allow in (Private) network rules.

S/W is up to date and running win 11 pro

This seems to have been an issue in win 10 as well. Has anyone managed to find a fix?
