Printing using Netgear ReadySHARE Printer function is not working.

Hi,

 

Printing using Netgear ReadySHARE Printer function is not working.
Router firmware is the latest: V1.0.1.12_1.0.11
My printer is a HP LaserJet 1020 USB printer, connected properly.
In Netgear USB Control Center (Software Version 1.36, Driver Version 1.83.35) it shows the printer is connected to R6400.
When I inititate printing from PC, the printer starts to roll rollers for about 3-4 seconds and stops without feeding in the sheet.
On PC in printer properties / printer status first shows Printing and after cca 30 seconds goes to: Error - printing.
After deleting the queued document, and try to print again, I get Error printing on HP LaserJet without printer roller activity.
Roller rolls only first attempt after the printer is powered on.

If I connect the printer trough USB to my PC, the printing is working properly.
Please suggest solution, or how to troubleshoot this.

 

Thanks,

mlori

Hi @mlori,

 

1. Does the issue persist when initiating a print using another computer?

2. Please try disabling any security/anti-virus software and check if it works.

Hi @DexterJB,

 

Disabling firewall on my PC resovled the issue.

Works as expected.

 

Thanks,
