[192.168.99.90]

The ip address of linux pc is 192.168.99.90 while the printer's is 192.168.0.100 in a different segment.
All the other windows systems with ip 192.168.99.xx can print the printer this way.
The office has only one internet line and two large rooms. Only one router can not cover the whole office so the service man use another router as a bridge.
But I don't know why the service man configured the printer's ip in a different segment.

[0.100]

I am a very noob at networking area.
I have a problem with network printer Canon iR2520 at my office.
In my office local network, all other computers are running Windows but my computer is running Arch Linux.
The wireless network printer's ip address is set as 192.168.0.100 and all client computers' ip addresses are 192.168.99.xx.
So all the computers can not ping 192.168.0.100 but Windows computers can set up the network printer and work well.
Only my computer can not print from that network printer. I followed all the wiki page and have driver installed. And I have avahi and local hostname resolution set up. But I can not locate the network printer.
I also set up manually like socket:192.168.0.100:9100 but doesn't work also.
Anyway, all windows computers are working well with that network printer.

My question is that is there any extra requirement if the destination host is Eg. 192.168.0.100 while the client computer's ip is 192.168.99.xx.
I am a bit comfused that. I understand if it is local network all devices have same likg Eg. 192.168.1.xxx.
Thanks in advance.
