Nighthawk R7000: OSX printer sharing
I have a small office of Macs and an HP LaserJet 3050. I used to have it shared via Bonjour from an Apple Airport Extreme base station, but have replaced that with a Netgear R7000 Nighthawk. ...
Solved. The ol' unplug/replug seemed to do the trick. Even though the R7000 had been seeing the printer fine (ReadyShare USB Control Center based printing was successful), it wasn't serving it up over Bonjour. Unplugging USB and plugging in again has fixed it.
On OSX 10.10 and higher, it appears as documented in the dropdown menu from "+" under "Nearby Printers"
ON OSX 10.9 and below, it appears in the "Default" tab of the "Add" window

I'd like to get it working via Bonjour, which this support document suggests is possible. However, when I get to step 5, it shows a pop-up menu appearing when I press the '+' button in Printer Preferences. This doesn't happen (at least not in OSX 10.9.5). Instead, it pops up an "Add" window with the following tabs: "Default", "Fax", "IP", "Windows". Should I be punching something in to the IP tab?
Try selecting the "Default" tab. My Bonjour-reachable printers show up there.
