LTE and Label Maker on Surface Go 2 at the same time

I have a Surface Go 2 with LTE. We also use a wireless label maker from brother, the VC-500W, that uses something called infistructure mode to connect as if it is a wifi router.

I have an excel macro VBA that prints to the label maker and it works great! The only issue is that I am not connected to LTE internet when I am connected to the label maker.

I'm thinking the work around might be to write code to connect to the printer when the print button is hit and then disconnect once it prints, but if anyone knows of an option on windows or an easier work around, that would greatly be appreciated!
