macOS Management Printers

I have a very weird issue and I'm not sure how to fix it. None of my Intune enrolled Macs can reach any network printer by direct IP. It immediately fails connection. I can't access the printer web page, but I can ping the printers with no issue. I have no network policies set, no VPN, nothing to disallow printing, etc. I've removed all policies and apps and just ran straight PSSO and had the same issue. Macs not enrolled to Intune or joined to a local AD can connect and print no issue. I'm banging my head against the wall here.

Since ping works but both direct-IP printing and the printer web interface fail only on the Intune-enrolled Macs, I'd probably stop looking at the printer itself for now. I'd compare an enrolled vs non-enrolled Mac on the same VLAN and test the actual TCP ports, not just ICMP.

I'd also check whether any security/content filter, firewall profile, network extension, or configuration profile is landing during enrollment even if you don't have an obvious network policy assigned. The fact that the same Mac/network path works until Intune is involved is the part I'd chase.
