Hi John -
I'm sorry for the delay in resolving this issue. Please note that we reached out to Apple last week on this issue and have asked for their help to ensure interoperability between our utility and the latest Mac operating system, which is a different process for us than with prior Mac operating systems. However, we don't know how long this will take.
in the meantime, we recommend that customers use Bonjour for shared printing. We understand that this solution is not acceptable to all our Mac customers. For those who are interested, here are the instructions: http://KB.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/30073
Again, I'm very sorry about the delay.

I see this was tagged as a solution, let us be clear, THIS IS NOT A SOLUTION FOR MANY OF US!

This is becoming farcical. El Capitan has proven to have compatibility issues in many different areas - most of which were resolved some time ago. This is a feature of Netgear products which was a sales point for many of us here on this forum. I really don't want to read another "workaround" solution offer.

I Agree 100%. this is at best a WORKAROUND. It is NOT a solution and wont be until Netgear get off their backsides and do what they should have done LAST YEAR.

Hang on morrissey007, it's not even as good as that.
My dictionary defines workaround as, "a method for overcoming a problem or limitation in a program or system"
For me the problem has not been overcome at all, thus, this is not a SOLUTION and also is not a WORKAROUND.
My System Preferences/Printers & Scanners just doesn't see my printer at all so I have no way of printing via wifi even with Bonjour
THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND IS NEITHER A SOLUTION NOR A WORKAROUND

I am sharing my WNDR4500v3 router with a windows laptop and a Mac Mini running 10.11.3. Since Netgear doesn't have USB control for EC, I was using the bonjour printer and it was working but now I can see the printer when I add a printer on the Mac but when I try and print, it errors out and says that it cannot connect to the printer. I have rebooted numerous times and even waited a few days but to no avail. Anyone have any thoughts, (that can be shared here)?
