USB Printer setup with Netgear router
Posted: Mon Nov 26, 2012 9:30 pm
First off let me disclose that I am a complete noob to Linux but I'm loving Mint more each day. One problem to solve and I think WIn7 is gone for good.
I'm using it on an Asus EeePC and have had very little trouble getting everything to work with one exception. I have an HP USB printer on a Netgear WNDR4500 router. There are two USB ports one with the printer and one with a flash drive. Accessing the drive is no problem but I can't get the printer working or even find it. Netgears web site has nothing usefull so I'm hoping someone here has figured this out.
Thanks
