    Set the router on the same network segment and you're good to go.

    Use the best and fastest router as the primary router.

    DHCP is turned off for all other subordinate routes

    The network cables from the primary route are connected to the LAN port of the secondary route.

    Is your printer a network printer? That's not easy to say, it's OK to access its IP directly! If it's not a network printer, you can only share it unless you're on the same route, i.e. within the same LAN.

    The specific steps can be found in the technical support of Sihai**. Connect the printer to a computer, which is the host, then create a workgroup on the host's online neighbors, add everyone to it, and then set it up to share the printers in the group!

    1: The printer has been shared successfully and the client is inaccessible because it has not set up its network workgroup in a group. Take win7 as an example, select the computer icon, right-click --- click "Properties" - advanced property settings.

    2: Click "Computer Name" -- change --- change the "Workgroup" name to the same as the print host. After clicking "OK", restart your computer as prompted. After the reboot is successful, you can add the printer normally.
