If your VPN address space at the office is the same as your home address space, it may be possible that your print jobs are being sent to the same address of your printer, but on the office side

My home network printer is hooked to a Netgear print server via a USB connection. Since the VPN system won't allow any outside peripheral inside it's "tunnel", it won't let the VPN based computer access any other network. The VPN system is a two-way tunnel that doesn't allow anything else in. If the printer is close enough to the local computer, you can create two logical printers (one for the network connection and one for the USB connection) for the printer. The USB printer can be used while vpn connection is active (or not), but remain available (via the Ethernet connection) to other computers on the local network. Printing on network and local printers over VPN connections and RDP connections can be somewhat tricky if not configured properly. Use the following steps to aid you in correcting the inability to connect to these local and network printers if issues are occuring. I connect to work through a Cisco VPN. My home office has a broadband router with two computers and a network printer. I can print from either computer as long as I am not connected to the VPN. Printers connected directly to the computer aren't affected by this but printers in the Local Area Network(LAN) may become unusable while connected to the VPN.There are a number of ways to deal with this problem, the easiest of which is to disable the VPN, print and then reconnect to the VPN. By Doug Lowe . The exact procedure for adding a network printer varies a bit, depending on the Windows version that the client runs. The following steps describe the procedure for Windows 10; the procedure for previous versions of Windows is similar:

Printing across a VPN or printing to a local printer while connected to one can come with a roster of challenges, since the VPN reconfigures your computer's network connection. Here's how it works. When you connect to a VPN, specialized VPN software establishes a tunnel or a dedicated connection to a point of presence (POP) in the remote

You should be able to connect to the VPN and remain connected to your network devices, including drivers and printers. Not all network setups are the same, but this approach gives you one creative
