I need to allow access to a company printer from unsecured public wifi

Current equipment

Cisco 2901 router

Cisco 2504 WLC w/2602i AP's

Cisco SG300 switches

Printer is on default vlan 1 - 192.168.0.10 address

Public wifi is on vlan 50 - 192.168.50 x

Public wifi / Vlan 50 is currently access restricted at the router to only allow traffic in/out to external wan/internet 170.164.72.x

Is it possible to allow clients on vlan50 to have restricted access to the 192.168.0.10 network printer to do printing?

Would I do that at the router? wlc? switch port for the printer?

thanks for any help on this?

If the current access restriction is on the router then it would seem logical that you would make changes on the router to allow access to the printer from the wireless network. The easy thing would be to allow access from wireless to IP address 192.168.0.10. If you wanted to be more precise you could identify the ports being used to access the printer and permit access only to those ports on that address.
