This may be a silly question.
When working from home, my wife connects to her office through a dedicated VPN (I don't know if it's Citrix or what). She also has a great deal of trouble printing to our wi-fi printer.
On my laptop, I use a
VPN for basic security/anonymity, and I do NOT have a problem connecting to our wi-fi printer.
I always presumed that the Wi-Fi printer was inside a private ring created by my router, and the VPN only impacted connections LEAVING the router. I am guessing this isn't true, based on my wife's experience.
Some insight would be helpful.
