After I installed the VPN service I started having printer problems. The printer was showing to be offline on both of my desktop computers. On a whim I turned the VPN off and the printer started working again. I don't understand why a VPN is affecting a wireless printer. Any thoughts??

Hello,

You can click the gear icon on the top right to reach the settings in the VPN and then navigate to Network and inside you'll find a toggle for "Allow Local Network Access" which should enable you to use your printer and other local devices with the VPN turned on.
