I am trying to send a print job from anywhere to a home network via its public IP address (I tried with and without a port number added ex. 40.230.2.2:9100), normal port number for RAW being 9100. I have a port forward setup on the router (which is a Verizon router/fiber modem) and still unable on my Windows 10 machine from outside the private network to "see" the printer for driver setup. I also created a port forward for SNMP to no success, yet when I forward port 80 to the printer I can pull its admin screen up from a browser. What am I missing to print from outside a private network? Also how might I setup printing through IPP, using the printer URI?

Windows cant see your printer in the internet, you must show it...
- go to devices & printers on control panel
- select any printer
- select from window menu printer server properties
- go to ports tab
- add standard tcp port witch global IP (to router with port forwarding)
- install manually printer or connect to net with printer and install it ( disconnect from net with printer)
- go to printer properties
- select tab ports
- select added port, apply
- go to general tab and try print test page
The printer must have configured correct gateway
to IPP printer forward 631 port
