Set up home printer on the internet

by mcraner . Updated 16 years, 4 months ago

I have an HP printer directly connected via ethernet to my router. All my home computers can print to this printer without issue as long as they are connected to the home network, wired or wirelessly.

What I want to do is be able to print while away from home via the internet from other computers, such as a work computer. Since the printer connects directly to the router, there is no need to share it from a pc or use programs like gotomypc.

I’ve looked around the net quite a bit and pretty much all the help I have found is for sharing a printer that is connected to a PC within a local network.

Can anyone out there please help?
