Block certain IP's from accessing LAN printer?

[Chrisgtl]

Hi all,

I know this isn't specific to Merlin's firmware but knowing how many clever people use this I thought someone here would be able to help.

I am trying to restrict access to a LAN printer (connected wirelessly with static IP of 192.168.0.13). The only IP's I want to be able to print are 192.168.0.14 and 192.168.0.15

Is this at all possible? If so, how?

Check the printer itself. Typically it will support access control lists which do exactly what you're asking.

I tried that already - I only see an option to enable an admin password which I have enabled but it still lets me print from any device on my LAN.
