Setting up static nat for ip addresses

We recently switched to a verizon fios line. Our company has two offices (CA, NC). There are servers in NC that we need to be able to print to printers in CA. 

We have 5 static IP's from Verizon, I set 3 of the remaining IPs as a static nat to the private ips of the printers. I cannot ping these static public ips. I even have the port forwarding from UDP/TCP set to any for both the Source and Destination ports. 
Can anyone help me as to why I cannot ping these IP addresses?
I can ping the private IP's from the private network (CA) that the printers are on.

No, it does not. But they are working this morning. Maybe the DNS needed to propigate? Not sure but it works now.

Does your printer respond to pings?
