What happened to USB Control Center v1.8?

I have a computer running Netgear USB Control Center/ReadyShare Printer version 1.8, with driver version 1.83.35. The software works great to connect to my router's USB printer. The only version of USB Control Center that I have been able to find on Netgear's website is version 1.35. That 1.35 version works, but not as well as version 1.8. What happened to version 1.8? Is it still available somewhere?

      I'm using this with my R6300v2 router. Note to Netgear, the R6300 is not listed in the "Associated Products" drop-down. I don't remember where I first got version 1.8 of the ReadyShare software, but it was years ago. I was having problems with the 1.35 version and scoured around for an update in the hopes I'd get lucky. I got lucky way back when, but apparently my luck has run out.
