Thank you both for helping.

I take it that you mean "port-based" in Netgear speak when you say "static VLANs"?
So that would work for the VLANs / PCs / Printer directly connected to the switch?
Will another PC connected directly to the FVS318n be able to print?
If the system works and gets scaled up at some stage through more of the switches connected to the router (i.e. a switch on each router port), would they be able to print on the network in that static vlan on the first switch?
I'm thinking a UTM could be the way to go, but it seems to be overkill.
