Does the printer even have a wired LAN connection? If it doesn't, then the answer is obvious. If it does, then I guess it would work. I can't promise that there won't be some issues with the Orbi, but the manufacturer probably wouldn't have put an ethernet connector on there if it weren't usable.

Yes. It has a wired LAN connection. Every network printer I have ever seen has one. Do you know of one that does not? I'd be curious to know. I also think it will work but was wondering if anyone had tried it and had it actually work.
