Allow printing from Lan based network printers to specific computers in DMZ

After having my previous question answered successfully:

https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/27484317/Internet-access-for-computers-with-2-NICs-sitting-in-DMZ.html

I now need to allow the computers in the DMZ to print to IP printers that are on the regular network.  One of them is a Canon (192.168.128.59) and the other is an HP (192.168.128.111).  Looking at the print drivers, they are using RAW / 9100.

So far I have tried creating static ROUTEs for both printer IPs...same as was done in the initial setup in the question above.  I have also added an ASA dmz rule to allow port 9100.

What else am I missing?

Thank you!

Can any of the computers in question view/discover these networked printers on the LAN? Can you post a sanitized copy of your running config?

The current setup consists of:

DMZ computer I am testing on = 192.168.100.50

The computer has the following ROUTE command for communication with a server on the network

ROUTE -p ADD 192.168.128.10 MASK 255.255.255.255 192.168.100.1
(DMZ gateway (ISA) = 192.168.100.1)

I added the same ROUTE commands for the IP addresses of the printers (59, 111)

I have the following for the ASA:

access-list dmz_inside extended permit tcp host 192.168.100.50 any eq 9100

I also have an access rule in ISA to allow all traffic between all the required systems.








And you have the following command entered(Im assuming)?
access-group DMZ_inside in interface DMZ

yes

it is only a question of what is needed to get the printing to work...the setup is fine otherwise.

Thanks!

How so? They are coming in from your trusted network(Inside).

Just a general concern that I inadvertently open a security hole since this is not my area of expertise.
