Share printer through WiFi router

Run setup again (like you are installing it) and follow the instructions to enable the wireless feature.

Most wireless printers must be connected for the initial wireless setup. Once it's complete, the computer will send it's print jobs through the network to the printer.

    I have a Canon PIXMA MG3250 printer and TP-Link TL-MR3420 router running DD-WRT. I want to share my printer through my router.

    How can I share my printer through the router in my local home network?

      What have you tried? Have you followed the installation instructions to enable the Wi-Fi feature?

      I installed it wit USB cable. The printer is connected to my PC which is connected to the router with enternet cable.

      This bears repeating...follow the instructions, follow the instructions, follow the instructions. Most wireless printers must be connected for the initial wireless setup. Once it's complete, the computer will send it's print jobs through the network to the printer.
