New MacBook pro. prints thru USB. Set up and shows up fine. Queue says "printing-printer connected". It just hangs up and never prints. no printer in airport utility menu.
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3)
Also, my internet is working perfectly fine.
Did you also "install" the printer again, once it was connected to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme?
In other words, if you open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock), then open Print & Scan, your printer should appear twice there....since you have it "installed" in two locations.....one at the Mac, and the other at the AirPort Extreme.
Yes Bob, I did install it again. It is set up for USB and again as wireless through my Airport. I have always done it that way with my old Macbook Pro.
Thanks for the clarification.
I suggest that you work your way through Apple's Printer Troubleshooting Guide.

Sometimes, the last step......reset printing system.....will work miracles when nothing else seems to work. Finally, there are some printers that just won't work with the AirPorts due to firmware and operating system changes in new products. You will know soon.
Good luck.
Thanks, I'll go thru the guide and see what happens.
None of that worked. This is why I hate to upgrade anything. No one's ever on the same page. I've been using this Airport and Epson Printer for a long time. Now I upgrade to a new MacBook Pro which makes me upgrade all drivers and profiles etc. and can't get it to print. Very frustrated.
Can't print through Airport Extreme.
