You would want to use a static NAT because can't put a device from the
214.100.200.* network on the 192.168.20.* network. If a machine on the
local LAN tries to get to that printer, it will determine that the machine
is not on its local network and send the packet to its default gateway
(i.e. the router). The router will then route the packet to the external
network and nobody will respond to it. A static NAT will solve this
problem and machine on the local LAN will use the "inside" IP address for
the printer and users on the internet will use the "external" IP address of
the printer and both will work.
