Instead of using the printer utility you could hardwire the printer into windows and use windows own built in printer sharing utility.

no used to face a lot of issues with that
most of the times the printer never got detected on the network
so started using the usb on the router for the printer which works flawlessly but the driver of the readyshare software is creating a mess

Which driver is that?
Where do I find it in Windows?
If you mean the USB Control Center, it works fine here. Version 1.83.0. Not a crash in siight.
