AirPrint Not Working
I just installed the Firewalla Gold and so far I have not experienced any issues except for AirPrint. Same VLAN...when i try to print from a mobile device, the devices cannot find any AirPrint enabled printers. Before anyone asks, yes AirPrint is enabled on the printer, and yes it was working prior to installing the Gold.
Everything behind the Firewalla is UniFi...switches and APs. Prior to the Gold, I had a UDM Pro as the "firewall". Has been working fine for years. I saw a post about enabling IPv6...checked that and it's on. i can still print fine from a computer (connected to the same SSID) but none of my mobile devices can see it.

Yeah I would agree with that assessment. Firewalls don't care about LAN traffic on the same subnet. Just curious why it stopped with the installation of the Firewalla and nothing else has changed. Based on that logic, it leads me to think there's something going on.
The devices are not on the same AP. Actually not even in the same building. There are multiple APs with two switches uplinked with fiber. I will try rebooting all of the local gear including the printers and see what happens.

See if your switches are swallowing/dropping multicast ... that's probably the only thing that's significant with air* protocols.
The only possible thing that may be different is, your access points used to be in router mode and now when they are bridge, they may have bugs. (we've see a few of them like that)
