Printer not working connected to Meraki AP SSID

Hi there,

I have created a test network. Essentially, 1 SSID (10.10.10.0/24) I have only a laptop and a printer connected via the AP. So Wirelessly connected to the same SSID and I cannot print anything. I have tried pinging the printer from laptop and no joy. I have all relevant drivers connected etc. I used my phone as a hotspot and connected both and all worked as expected. Any help much appreciated. My full kit is..Meraki MX to Switch to AP. Nothing crazy just 1 vlan created for the Test SSID and trunked all the way from MX to AP.
Any help much appreciated

Check if you mr ssid firewall is blocking anything on L3 or that l2lan isolation is enabled

Hi there,

Many thanks for your reply. I can see L2Lan isolation is not enabled (Which is correct?) and no deny rule in place. Any other suggestions much appreciated

Could you please share the SSID configuration with us?

Still having the issue. Also from the dashboard I can ping the printer from all other SSID's Vlans I set up, which I dont want, especially the test guest SSID. I have attached all relevant information. Hope you can shed some light on this.

Quick question, are both printer and device receiving IP?

Hi there,

Yes both printer and device are receiving IP. I can ping them both from Meraki dashboard from all vlans.

What firmware version are you running? Have you tried with a different firmware version?

There is no special setting to enable, so if it doesn't work with a different firmware version, my suggestion is to open a support case.

I have a similar problem with an Epson L365 printer. It's a bit old, but I think it should work. I recently integrated Meraki devices into my home network. Before, it was connected to my home internet router's Wi-Fi, but now I want to connect it to my Meraki access point, and it's not being recognized. It seems the printer is too old to connect on the 2.4GHz band. I'm running some tests, but I see a similar case here. Did you find a solution?
