Assign Static IP for printer on google cloud

Hi, 

I have a brother printer on the google cloud print that regularly goes offline. I have assigned the printer a static IP http://192.168.2.250. How do I restrict the IP address range from the meraki dashboard?

 

Thank you.

This reaches out to the Google cloud, correct?  You have not created an inbound NAT, correct?

 

If so, you don't really need a firewall rule.  Nothing can "get in".

All correct. I also didn't think I needed a firewall rule, but I can't understand why despite the printer being assigned a static IP the printer continues to go "offline" every few days and needs to be reregistered to the cloud. I'm not the only one with this issue. Might be a google cloud print issue as it is in beta.

I'll guess it is either a bug with the printer firmware or a bug with the Google cloud print solution.
