ORBI AX600 - WIFI Printer EXPSON AX 7100 problem

A few weeks ago I installed an new Orbi AX6000 system with one satelite RBR852. Then I tried to install my old Canon MX455 printer without succes. I thought, the printer was to old, so I bought a new one; EPSON XP-7100. But the same problem. I can connect the printer to the network, so I have connection. Al the rapports I can make are fine. I can also see the printer at orbilogin. It's having the status; allowed. But when I try to setup the printer with the EPSON software, it tells me; cannot find the printer. I can also not see the printer in the Windows configuration screen. The sollution EPSON brings is; it is an security problem, mostley called; privacy separation function?

 

Mayby some extra info; the RBR850 is connected to the modem, and my desktop is also directly connected to the modem.

It sounds like your PC needs a wired network connection and that's why you had it plugged into the modem.  Have you tried plugging your PC into one of the Orbi's network ports?  You want all your devices on the same network, i.e., your Orbi network, whether wired or wireless.
