Unfortunately, you did not provide us with any information about the troubleshooting steps regarding what you have already tried, so we don't have much to go on here.
Once you connected the printer to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme.....
Did you remember to "install" the printer again at that new location using System Preferences > Print & Scan?
thanks Bob,
Yes I was a bit short.
I did find it.
The mac was connected with the airport extreem with a cable.
I disconnected the cable , so the connection was wireless and now it is working.
thank you anyhow.

Bob -- Hoping that you can help: Ok...here goes...
About a week ago we started noticing wonky stuff happening to our network: 2 Macs; 2 iphones; ipad; airport express as print server; 2 VOIP units; and a PC we use to stream TV [sic]...all connectred thru an Asus RT N56U. The problem presented as dropped wifi signal; and dropped abiltiy to print. I tried all kinds of things to no avail. Thought that the dropped signal may have been due to ios7 conflict [it started happening at about the same time]...
Prolly did too much and i was getting dizzy
[though i did backup settings] so....
Finally: reset router to factory defaults,
created new network name/keys
and it seems to be holding...
but STILL can't see the USB networked printer
[though router recognizes the APex]
and get the "printer not connected" prompt in the print status window
when the mac mini and MBAir can see the printer
[most times won't be seen in printer list; or in available printers list]
I'd really like to print...
and is anyone else seeing wonky WIFI issues
since the latest ios7 update?
thanks ;-)))
