I have a window 10 PC , it use wired network to connect internet , the IP address is 10.117.32.31

I have a router , the internet IP is 10.117.32.32 , I also have a printer attached this router , the printer dynamic IP is 192.168.1.110

Now If I want the above PC ( IP address : 10.117.32.31 ) can print to this printer , how to config it ?

thanks a lot .
 
start by opening CMD from the main computer and ping the 192 address... assuming the router is not also a firewall that should get a reply
if you don't get a reply then the network will need work done before you can talk to the printer... make sure the printer is actually turned on

 
Why is the printer being given a dynamic address on a class C network 192.168.*.* and where is it being allocated from? Why not just used DHCP from the router to allocate a class A address on 10.*.*.*
