Print server vpn and orbi

Hey there,
I have a question. I work from home and have a work supplied printer. It is usb only. I really would like to move it out of where it is. Is there a print server that I can use with my orbi system. (I have the rbk40 and there is no USB port). Also , if I connect to work through a vpn would I be able to access the printer on my wireless network? I use my wireless network to access works vpn.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks!

NG had a print server, not sure if it's still available:

Might check out HP for print servers that can connect USB printers to LAN network connections. https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-Jetdirect-en3700-Fast-Ethernet-Print-Server/329196/model/329198?jumpid=reg_r1002_usen_s-001_title_r0012
