Re: Using Oribi cannot print

This device appears to be sold only through Telstra in Australia.  (The model number does not appear in the Netgear list of products.)

Telstra appears to have a pretty active "crowd support" web site.  I see mention of contacting Telstra using a number of methods:

Perhaps a little more detail would help diagnose the problem.

  • How is the printer (printers?) connected.
    WiFi?
    To the base unit or the satellite?
  • The printer has an IP address from the Orbi and appears in the list of attached devices?
  • What sort of device is attempting to print?
    Desktop?
    Laptop?
    Smartphone? Tablet?
  • This device is also connected to the Orbi, has an IP address, and appears on the list of attached devices?
  • Many printers require a 'setup' before they will print. Does this one?
  • Can you make a screen shot of the error message and attach it to a post?
    (Use the Browse button in the lower left of the screen rather than the Photos icon in the menu bar.)
