Hello Plemans,

 

Thank you for your reply and help. I've already done those steps. Even disabled the firewall on the router and allowed the NETGEAR USB Control Center through my laptop's firewall and no result.

 

Now I dont see the printer on the router.

 

This is so weird.

 

Regards,

Victor Gonzalez

    have you tried running the usb control center as an administrator? 

    If you log into the router through the browser, does it show the printer connected?

      Hello,

       

      Yes, I've tried to open the NETGEAR USB Control Center as admin and no luck. But I see the printer connected. Please see screen attached.

        that isn't necissarily the printer. Its just the routers readyshare sever.

        there used to be a list of incompatible printers but it hasn't been updated since before your printer was released.
