Location aware printing problem - multiple sites on a single domain, same subnet - different IP ranges.
We have a single domain spread over two sites, the location aware printing seems to get confused when the laptop moves sites. Printing just freezes and a restart or reinstallation of printer is needed (spooler service restart doesnt solve issue).
I havent had chance to test my laptop with the two sites (installed printer at one site just now and the other tomorrow); does anyone know a way of either changing the recognition to IP address or at least use location aware printing on same domain at multiple
sites?

From the following article we can aware the background of Network Location Awareness Service
Longhorn Network Location Awareness Service
If you would like to use different gateways for different subnets, you can configure it in the DHCP server with the instruction of the route/switch. The router /switch must support this function. However, after that it is hard to access the resources in
other subnets.
