Okay, I work remotely two days a week. Starting about a month ago something changed just for me. I have worked with other people on my team that can still print remotely while on VPN with no problems. Currently, when on the corporate network using a VM Workstation image (Windows Server 2012r2 Standard) I am able to print all day to network printers. However, when I go home and still need to print to a network printer I am unable to print to them.
