Router Firewall rules sonicwall ubiquiti edgerouter
I'm new to firewall / routers and wonder if you can help.
I have 1 win 7 PC behind a ubiquiti edgerouter. The lan subnet is 192.168.1.0/24. I can log into that router
and 1 win 7 pc behind a sonicwall. THat lan subnet is 192.168.100.0/24. The sonicwall is managed by others
Both routers are connected on their wan ports to a comcast router / modem. also plugged into the comcast router / modem is an HP officejet printer. That subnet is 10.1.10.0/24
Both PCs are set up to print to the hp printer with a static IP of 10.1.10.45 (so both have to go through their own router to get to the printer).
Print jobs sent from PC A through the sonicwall print immediately.
Print jobs sent from PC B through the edgerouter take about 10 seconds to start printing.
Is there anything I need to do on the edgerouter to speed up it sending the job to the printer across its WAN port?

thanks. there's 1 pc on each network so traffic isn't the issue : )
drivers - where would you check the drivers like you would in device manager? (printers aren't in device manager - at least I didn't see). In device manager it has rev. details. in printer properties, it just has the name of the driver, right?
both win 7 machines are new / likely have similar drivers.
So to get out of the ubiquiti network vs. the sonicwall network, there' s no routing table / something in the firewall to tell it where to look for that 10.1.10.0/24 subnet? the both know that 'this LAN is 192.168.x.0/24, so if that IP is not in that subnet, send it out the wan port?
(both have the printer set up to use the tcp/ip port of the printer's static IP).

secondly, i would check the printer's drivers on A and B, make sure the exact same version is installed on both computers and runnig in the same mode and on the same port/procotol etc.
the third step would be checking if any congestion on the Ubiquti subnet. workstation numbers and processor load on Ubiquti can be two factors to consider and observe.
