Steve,

More info?

Are the Sonicwall's VPN'd together?
What is the Printer connection?

Specifically the print server hardware and that should tell you what port it is working on. You have to know the port in order to CRTDEVPRT or CRTRMTOUTQ anyways. Most HP use port 9100.

If the Sonicwall's are providing a VPN tunnel between them (the best option) then there is no other setup on them.

If you are not using VPN you will have to create a "Service" on the printer network's Sonicwall for the port you are using, and then add a "rule" that uses that "service" and maps it to the destination IP. You will probably want to set this rule to only accept from the IP of the other Sonicwall.

Be aware it probably takes a fair amount of bandwidth, in both directions, to make printing work reliably. Most DSL is ADSL which means the outgoing speed is half or less of the speed you are paying for. I think you are going to want 128Kbps actual speed at least. Much more if you are doing AFPDS/IPDS graphics.
