No, no, no.


As for the Cisco command, I did a quick search and 'ip forward-protocol nd' was 
old in 2010
--
Forwards Network Disk (ND) packets. This protocol is used by older diskless Sun 
workstations.
--
seems unrelated to a printer issue.

It may be possible that mDNS (avahi) might solve this printer issue, together 
with firewall rules:

mDNS/DNS-SD Service Discovery (Bonjour)
https://doc.astlinux-project.org/userdoc:tt_avahi_mdns

As the docs show, David Kerr has used this.

It may be possible that just firewall rules might be enough if the printer is 
referenced via a static IP address.
