First you need to explain what is going on and what your printer is.

 

I assume that you started by asking the printer maker for help.

 

The usual way to fix wifi printers is to find the printer maker's utility, the software that runs on your operating system. Then use that to connect the printer to the wifi.

 

The router just broadcasts wifi. It is then down to the printer to play ball. There isn't much that you can do on a router, beyond fixing it to a particular IP address, that affects what the printer gets up to.

 

Where possible, using the WPS feature can simplify things.

There is no phone support for Netgear. You do it via the support portal:

 

Contact Us | Support | NETGEAR

 

First you have to register your device to confirm that it is eligible for the 90-days free support. Start here:

 

MyNETGEAR | Product Registration

 

Start a case and, with luck, they will contact you.

 

After 90 days, Netgear does not provide paid support. It farms that out to GearHead.

 

GearHead Support

 

Or you can try to sort it out here. That costs you nothing.
