Nighthawk Wi-Fi 7 RS700
I have configured two guest networks on our new router so that we can allow controlled access for guests and have a dedicated network access for my work computer., allowing the rest of the home connections and entertainment connections to take place outside of those environments. This is the same set-up I have used on previous routers. However, my printer is now only discoverable on the non-guest environments and I do need it to be available to guests and for my work. Not sure what I am missing and have tried every work around I know. Open for suggestions, and hoping someone has done a similar thing.

Two Guest Networks? RS only supports one Guest Network which is isolated from the main WLAN network. Any of these connections on the GN will never have access to the main WLAN or printer if the printer is connected there.
Using the Web interface to access your router's web setup page you can make the following selection: Allow guests to see each other and access my local network. If your guests are trusted, this should be OK and allow them to access your printer.
