Hi @joelferris

 

Welcome to the community!

 

Since the release of El Capitan, ReadySHARE Print stopped working because the USB Control Center utility is not compatible to work with it. 
Our engineers are still working on the said issue. Anyhow, let me check with our engineering team about the new OS. For the meantime, you may want to use Bonjour service for your printing needs.

Thanks for the update. FYI - You might want to stop suggesting the use of Bonjour Services as a solution as it does not work with a printer connected to the USB port on a Netgear router.

When can we expect a patch or update of the USB Control Center for MAC OS 10.9?

Was using Bonjour option as a work-around to at least use my printer attached to the R7000 USB port.  Upgraded to macOS Sierra 10.12.1 and the Bonjour option no longer works (printer not seen when adding).  Yes, Readyshare has been broken on Mac since "El Capitain".  Please fix.  Thanks.

Earlier I posted that the Bonjour solution no longer worked with macOS Sierra.  I just now tried again and was successful.  No clue what changed.

 

Would still like full functionality for both USB ports on the R7000 with macOS Sierra.  Thanks.

Hello All, I am still waiting from our engineering team an update about the USB Center Control Utility that will be compatible with your Mac OS.

It's still under SQA, once it has passed that phase I will let you all know.
