I own an Epson WfFi enabled printer, and no issue getting it to connect to the Orbi. It found the network (SSID) and connected just fine. All of my devices are on the same network, and can see the printer. For my iPhone, when I go to print, like from a web page, it can find the printer due to its visibility to air print. Check your printer and make sure that it is connected to the same network that your other devices are connected to. Also, check that your printer has the ability to air print, or print from the web option enabled.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I bought this assuming that the support for USB printers (& Disk) is there. Get home to find out it just doesn’t work. Called Netgear and was given wrong information. They promised to call back but never did. It is very, very difficult to find their number and to go through voice menu jail to finally get through to someone. I even called Best Buy Geek Squad as I opted for the extended warranty. The lady said they have no support documents for getting the printer to work that I should call Netgear. She gave me a different number and I tried that with the same result. The WiFi portion is working. But the reason I bought this unit is it support USB, Linksys did not.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Make sure you are connecting to the network named printer as orbi uses that to make it air print compatible
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Honestly I have an Epson on my network. If you had your device previously joined to a different wireless network, you may want to redo the setup on the printer to see if it works. My AirPrint works flawlessly and I didn't have to configure anything.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.They both have to be on the same network if using wifi. Also you can just use a USB cable to plug the printer into one of the USB ports on the back of the orbi
