Install the Printer Driver and Cable the Printer

Some USB printer manufacturers (for example, HP and Lexmark) request that you do not connect the
USB cable until the installation software prompts you to do so.
To install the driver and cable the printer:
1.
On each computer on your network that shares the USB printer, install the driver software for the USB
printer.
If the printer driver is not installed, contact the printer manufacturer.
2.
Use a USB printer cable to connect the USB printer to the router USB port on the front panel.
