[SOLVED] USB printer and Mac mini

[Bill on HHI]

Hello,
When I connect my USB printer to the Netgear WNDR4500 router, I cannot print from my MAC MINI. Tells me the print file is not accepted.

Net gear will not or cannot help me.

There are lots of Apple sites who can find an answer to your problem. try them.

Does the printer work if connected directly to the Mac? Have you loaded the printer driver onto the Mac (if the answer to the previous question was "yes" then I guess you have). Have you loaded the ReadyShare software on the Mac? Does the printer show as "Available" in the Netgear USB control centre? What make and model is the printer?

My wireless HP printer works fine with my Mac Mini, but that is a direct connection; using the router as a print server is slightly different.

Hi Bill,
did you get this to work? Having same problem with macbook air. Started after i updated firmware i think. Same router as you. Netgear wants me to pay 130.00 to get support!
