ReadyShare print compatibility with R6400

Hi All,

 

A while back, my ReadyShare printing capabilities stoped working on all my computers.  Now that i have time to look into it, I am having trouble getting it to work.  I have installed the latest firmware and reinstalled NETGEAR USB contorl center with the latest version from the web site.  I noticed that the release notes for the latest NETGEAR USB contorl center 1.36 does not list the R6400 as a compatible router.  Would anyone know if this is true or is it was just left out by mistake.  I do hope its a mistake, because this router really isn't that old and is still being sold.  

 

Specific Information

Netgear AC1750 (R6400) router Firmware V1.0.1.18_1.0.15

ReadyShare V1.36

Windows 10

HP Laserjet 1020 with latest drivers

Use to work perfectly on all my computer, now it does not.

Printer works if connected directly to computers via USB

Firewall is turned off

 

Any help with this is appreciated.

  • Hi Ddredar,

     

    Please try uninstalling and re-installing the drivers for the printer on at least one computer for isolation. Please keep us posted on the results.

    Hi Ddredar,

     

    1. Can the printer be detected by the USB Control Center?

    2. Try uninstalling and re-installing the printer drivers.

  • Yes it does work connected directly to my computers via USB. I have tested it with all five of my computers with the latest drivers
