HP Printer and RAX120
Hey All, So a few weeks ago I got the RAX120 Went to print something today via Wifi and noticed my printer wasn't connected. HP Laserjet Pro 200 (M251 I believe) Pretty sure its a wifi setting...
It’s only with this router. Didn’t do it with the last one I had. Definitely has something to do with the newer technology in this router. My guess is if I put it to the lowest 2.4g settings it will work. The new “ax” technology is to new for the printer.
I only use it when printing from my iPad and I have other ways around that.

Sometimes drivers need updating so worth checking if there's any for the printer.
insure TX is on in advanced settings on router.
Don't use 40ht on 2.4 as some printers don't like this, use 20ht if you are on 40ht.
I tried those settings just not and still nothing. And I had to manually reboot the router cause it must not have liked the change. The settings held but my WiFi went down.
I give up on this one. Its not super important. More of an incovience to me really.
Jconway1006, it may be beneficial to disable Protected Management Frames on the RAX120, which are enabled by default. Disabling PMF is designed to “fix legacy wireless client and printer connection issues,” according to Netgear.
Please see the router’s webpage at ADVANCED | Advanced Setup | Wireless Settings | Disable PMF.
Yeah still won't connect.... Apprectiate the help though....
Put the router in ac mode and try
