It seems you configured the OpenDNS resolver addresses on the LAN side, not on the WAN side of the router. In this case the OpenDNS resolver addresses are propagated via DHCP to the connected devices, this making local name resolution more difficult or impossible. If you cannot configure OpenDNS on the WAN side, you have to connect to the printer with it's IP address, or you introduce entries in the local hosts files with the printer's network name.
