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.

So do you leave the USB cable connected or no?

Problem Solved for Epson NX420 and Orbi AX4200:
1. Restore printer to factory default settings.
2. On one laptop: deleted printer drivers then reinstalled driver (we downloaded online) like installing for the first time.
3. Continue setting up wifi connection with a temporary USB cable.
4. Done. Other devices can print like there was no issue.

You can remove USB cable when setup is done. You should be able to print through the wifi after that.

Thank you for your suggestions. As it turns out, I decided to purchase a new Brother printer. After installation, it worked immediately with the Orbi network. So all is well in my printer world.
