Orbi Wifi 6 PRO SXR80 Printing across SSID

Dear Netgear community, i need some help with my latest set up where i am trying to print across two SSID. 

 

Router and Satellite:  Orbi Wifi 6 PRO (SR80) with two satellites running latest firmware 3.2.0.108. Its a home mesh

 

SSID Details:

 

SSID1: Using WPA3 authentication with default vlan profile with network and client isolation both off. This has my mobile devices and desktop

 

SSID2: Using WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK authetication with iot vlan profile with entwork and client isolation both ON. This has my printer HP 8610 deskjet.

 

Post the latest firmwate upgrade, If all devices are only in the same SSID2 can I use the printer. If my printer is in SSID2 and my devices like laptop are on SSID1, i am unable to find the printer / print. 

 

I have tried removing the vlans, changing the network and client isolation but nothing works. This used to work before the latest firmware upgrade. Unfortunately my printer does not support WPA3 authentication and cant move it to SSID1.

 

Is there any suggestions / workaround / fix to seemlessly stay connected and work?

 

 Thanks in advance.

 

Partha
