 The problem is that when you install a printer at home, it's on your home LAN, right?
	The problem is that when you install a printer at home, it's on your home LAN, right?But VPN connects in a way that gives the machine you're on an internal IP address. Like if your home LAN address started with 192, for example, and the office started with 10. The printer would have a 192 address whilst your work laptop would have a 10 address whilst it was connected to VPN.
Meaning you can't print to your wireless printer whilst you're on VPN. Can't see it, see?
