Hello John.
I am afraid this is expected behavior.
The wireless printer communicates with your PC using the device's IP address. When you turned on VPN connection, the device's IP address is masked and a VPN server's IP address is assigned instead.
Due to this reason, the wireless printer could not communicate with the device.
Appreciate your understanding.
Hi,
I have a wireless printer. The printer worked fine. Suddenly today it stopped working.
If I turn off the VPN than the printer works. If I turn on the VPN then the printer does not work.
I haven't had this problem before. The wireless printer worked with a VPN without conflict.
What advice?
Regards
John
