Hi tolidano, as a temporary fix, you can remove the printers from being scanned by Armor. You can do that by logging in to armor.netgear.com and clicking on the router > click on "See all devices on this router" > look for the device/s (printer) that you want to remove > click on the ellipsis (three dots) on the far right > click on Remove.
