Step 6: Make sure your computer is not connected to your network over a Virtual
Private Network (VPN)
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a computer network that uses the Internet to provide
a remote, secure connection to an organization’s network. However, most VPN services
do not allow you to access local devices (like your printer) on your local network while
your computer is connected to the VPN.
To connect to the printer, disconnect from the VPN.
TIP: To use the printer while connected to the VPN, you can connect the printer to
your computer with a USB cable. The printer uses its USB and network connections
at the same time.
For more information, contact your network administrator or the person who set up the
wireless network.
