Your device needs to be in the same network. Printer is only reachable in your intranet where wifi is logged in. Also make sure to set the port :3344 after the ip if you are not using our image.

Depends on your internet connection. Most routers support dynamic dns service and port forwarding. If this works with your provider, you can reach it on the dynamic dns name with the port used for forwarding. But the server will not detect this setting on it‘s own, so you need to know how you did it.
