Ethernet printer issue

I have an HP printer connected by ethernet to an Asus router. After updating my router firmware, I can not longer see this printer from a Mac connected to the router by wifi. The printer does not appear in the Printers preferences add printer pane.


A Mac which is connected by ethernet can still see the printer and print without problem.


What has gone wrong?

Restart your Devices:

Does any other device see it? If not, then go on the Printer, and see if you need to reconnect. Having updated the firmware, try power off the Router and the Printer for 30 seconds, seeing if it is now accessible. Perhaps, it all needs to resync?
