Yanni,
Bonjour is limited to a single subnet. Proxy solutions exist to bridge between subnets.
What you can do is add the printer manually using the "IP" browser (System Preferences -> Printers & Scanners -> Add Printer or Scanner... -> IP (in the toolbar)) Enter the server name or IP for the address, select IPP as the protocol, and use "printers/PRINTERNAME" (where "PRINTERNAME" is the name of the print queue) for the queue.
