*Resolved* New network, now printer not found
I recently had troubles with getting online that I suspected were caused by my modem. I replaced the modem, got on the phone to the cable company to register the new one, got on the phone to the apple guy to create a new network, and all is great. Except for printing. I can no longer print to the printer connected to my time capsule, which is my router. It worked fine before but I can't even find it on a list of printers to be added now. I'm really mystified.
Printer: Canon mp470
Network: motorola modem, time capsule router (also backup)
[edit]I should add that I have hunted through these forums and did not see a close match. But I could have missed it. I did install the canon driver and user guide.
[edit]It occurs to me that this is a usb port question. Now that I have created a new network nothing plugged into the usb port is visible. I have both a printer and an external hard drive. On the old network both were visible and available. How might I fix this?
[edit] see last reply. I figured it out.
