As a longtime tailscale user this looks good to me. Disclaimer: I haven't personally followed this procedure as I preferred in my case to use a tailscale subnet route on my router to expose the 3d printer onto my tailnet. That being said, I think we should go ahead and merge this. |

| **Alternative Option - Subnet Router** | ||

| While out of scope for this specific documented procedure, it's worth calling out that one can configure a [subnet router](https://tailscale.com/kb/1019/subnets) to avoid having to install the tailscale client on your printer. It allows for more flexibility but comes at the cost of complexity; ie dedicated device acting as the subnet router and configuring it as a gateway on devices that you want access to. This notice is to draw awareness to the end user that alernative installations exist. |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Tailscale subnet router does not require configuration from the devices on that subnet at all. If you have a tailscale subnet router exposing 192.168.1.0/24 to tailscale, devices on the tailnet can access the subnet through tailscale, but devices on the subnet can't access the tailnet. It's essentially a split-vpn.

I thought this may be useful for friends who don't want to use qidilink but also want to have remote access to their printer.
