[QUOTE="davidparker, post: 225634, member: 22563"] Hello, i am also facing the same problem in Brother Printer and in this case here is the reason and solution for this problem. Reason: The most probable reason for your Brother printer not printing from a second VLAN is network segmentation. VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks) are used to segment network traffic for improved security and efficiency. If your Brother printer is connected to one VLAN and your device trying to print is connected to another VLAN, they may not be able to communicate due to network restrictions. Solution: To resolve this issue, you need to ensure that both the printer and the device trying to print are on the same VLAN or that appropriate routing and firewall rules are configured to allow communication between VLANs. Here are steps to troubleshoot and resolve the problem: [LIST=1] [*]Check VLAN Configuration: Verify that both the printer and the device are configured to be on the same VLAN or that VLAN routing is properly configured to allow communication between VLANs. [*]Firewall Settings: If VLAN routing is in place, ensure that firewall settings are not blocking communication between the VLANs. Adjust firewall rules as necessary to allow printing traffic between the VLANs. [*]Network Permissions: Check network permissions and access controls to ensure that the device has the necessary permissions to print to the Brother printer across VLANs. [*]Update Printer Firmware: Ensure that your Brother printer has the latest firmware installed. Sometimes, firmware updates include fixes for networking issues that may improve communication across VLANs. [*]Contact IT Support: If you're unable to resolve the issue on your own, consider reaching out to your organization's IT support team or network administrator for assistance. They can provide further troubleshooting and guidance specific to your network configuration. [/LIST] I hope you found the solution to your problem. Thank You! [/QUOTE]
