    Connecting to local printer over internet


    Apologies if this is the wrong board to post this.
    I have been asked to set up a remote connection from a laptop directly to a local printer connected to the router, without remote connection to the office pc, so that the person using the laptop at home can print to the
    local printer in the office.
    Can this be set up on Windows 10 Home and if so how?
    Are there any tutorials on how to do this?

    :)

    1. Open Admin command and type: ipconfig

    2. Win+X->Control Panel->Netwok and Sharing Center
      Follow the screen shot. This should disable internet access from this PC but allows access to local device(s)
      NOTE: Use the IP & Subnet Mask from step 1. Leave Default gateway & DNS Server blank
