Mobile printing issue Any ideas?

[Bill]

Hey,

I am maintaining a Windows 2003 SBS w/ 5 hardwired
workstations and two wireless mobile users through a
linksys wired/wireless router. The two mobile users just
got new laptops and for some reason cannot access the
printer which is shared on the domain via one of the
workstations on the network. All machines are running XP
Pro. I just came into the office with my new ibook and
was able to connect easily and print. Who would have
thought? But no matter what I do these laptops cannot
connect in the office to the workstation's printer. I've
tried using the server as the share and no luck, tried
using the hardwire instead of wireless and no luck, and
the funny thing is they can both use the printer when they
are connected to the office VPN. Very strange. They
aren't connecting to the domain when they are in the
office, but can still share files and use the mapped
drives off the server, so I don't think that has anything
to do with it.

I've tried to give every possible detail and step I've
taken. Any advice?

Thanks,
Bill

Please post and email.

I would take a look in the firewall settings on the wlan connetion....
