Cisco VPN Connection is preventing me from printing to my LAN Networked Printers

At home the user prints to two HP networked printers that are setup with TCP/IP ports that have local ip addresses. When the computer connect to the office via the cisco VPN it can't print to these local printers. Is there a good workaround for this?

The computer is a laptop that is connecting to a wireless network. Then the printers are plugged into the router locally. Printing works great when not connected to the VPN.

The VPN is mainly used for access of documents on the work server and for accessing mail through Outlook 2007.

User would like to be able to print emails and such while on the VPN connection.

The company installed a newer version of the Cisco client and then I gave them all the network particulars and they were able to configure a special profile.
Thanks.
