RAX70 USB port

The router doesn't recognize my printer on the USB Port.

    Impossible to tell what might be happening given so little information.

     

    Visit the support pages:

    Support | NETGEAR

    Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.

    A quick search suggests that your device does not support USB printers.

     

    You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers about your hardware, in the appropriate section for your device. That's probably here:

      That answered my question. 4+ hours with Netgear support answered nothing. They couldn't figure it out. Replaced the router as they discovered the reset button didn't work. But no answers. A few days later, one of their support agents looked at my problem and promptly emailed that mt router USB port didn't support printers. 
      Thanks
