Wireless printing firewall issues

[i.am....@gmail.com]

Hi all,

I have a wireless samsung 2165W setup using wifi behind a router, I have enabled port fowarding of 9100 in the router. the printer works when other's in the wifi network access it, but on the WAN side of the router, when I try to print via 192.168.3.12:9100 where 192.168.3.12 is the router WAN addr, the print driver says cannot connect to printer, something about the firewall or port forwardig is causing this, any ideas?

thanks in advance

Which print driver are you using?

I just downloaded the linux driver code from the samsung website, I used their 2160 version of ppd file, and use the rastertosamsungspl file, this procedure does work if I use the linux box in the same wifi network, the problem all arises when I go through the router/firewall where I have to foward the port 9100.
