Hey guys,

we have 3 WAN connections, one of them has a static IP.
We have also a printer and want to use it with an office365 account.
the smtp reply issues makes it impossible to use it normal, so the support tell me, i must create a connector with a static IP.

My plan is it to configure on the TPLINK TL- ER5120 a connection from the printer IP to the WAN with a static IP.
But i dont find the possibility on the router?

Where can I do this?

Thanks

Do you mean that you need to access the printer from the external network?
You can set up the Address Reservation for printer. Then set up the virtual server to open the port for printer. Then you should be able to access the printer from the external network through access "WAN IP:PORT". And you need to confirm which port the printer uses.

no. sorry.

we have 3 WAN connections with 3 IP addresses.
but 1 of them has a static company ip address.

i want that a specific ip goes over a specific WAN.

maybe now my issue is clear?

Do you mean that you need to access the printer, but you have three WANs, therefore, the data that accesses the printer may be forwarded from different WAN, resulting in access failure?

Maybe you can try to Enable Application Optimized Routing. And set up the policy routing.
