Orbi AX6000 with Satellite

Recently purchased the Orbi AX6000 which includes a satellite. I am unable to connect an Epson printer NX420 to the network. Any suggestions? Is the printer too old? Thanks.

Be sure printer FW is updated. 

Try connecting the printer to the RBR with WPA2 disabled temporarily to see if it will connect. Then try WPA2 and AES.

Contact the printers mfr for additinoal help and information.

Thanks for your response. No success with changing the security settings. I also reinstalled the printer software with the latest FW and no success. My prior Netgear router R6300v2 with extender worked well with the printer but I wanted to improve my WiFi speed so I bought the AX6000.
