RBR50 ReadySHARE USB Printer
I have Orbi RBR50 with two satellites. From a wifi perspective it works great, but for the life of me I can't get a HP CP3252 Color Laser Jet printer to work over the USB port on the back of the sate...

Thanks again. In the interim, I uninstalled the driver and the ReadyShare software and reinstalled them and now it's working correctly. Guess some kind of conflict occurred. So, I thik I'll just stick with the USB connection as I don't use this color LJ very often.

I would review this to see if anything helps here:

Also your printer has a LAN port on the back. I might work better to connect the printer via LAN port to the Orbi and then install drivers on your PCs and direct the drivers to the IP address the printer gets from the router.

Thanks. I’d reviewed that information, downloaded & installed the app with no complaints but it’s not operating as described. I get the language prompt screen but nothing follows it. I would use an Ethernet port but I need them all. Maybe I can connect up an energy switch to get more ports. …? Thanks, though for your inputs.
