Printer sharing across Arris Media Gateway

Hey guys, I'm new to the forum but have searched this forum and have not found an answer to my question.

I recently upgraded to WOW Ultra TV with the 30/3 Internet. I previously had just the 15/2 speed and was running a Belkin N600 Dual Band router, and had no issues sharing anything across my network. My problem is since they have installed the Arris Gateway, I am not able to share my printer across my network anymore (either with a wired computer or wireless). I have went through the settings in the router but have not been able to figure out how to get the printer to be shared. If anyone could point me in the right direction, or let me know how they were able to set up sharing through the Arris, I would greatly appreciate it.

It's not in the router settings. It is in your PC's settings, or the wireless printer's.

The printer isn't wireless, it's just hooked up to my pc. I was able to share the printer from my pc to all my other pc's when I had the Belkin router hooked up, but ever since they have installed the new arris hardware, none of the other pc's can find my printer on the network anymore. I have went in and manually set to share the printer across the network, I have set up a homegroup and everything else I can think of. I am still at a loss.

Did you set the network as a Private (Home or Work) network?

Have checked the port ip listed for the printer

After looking into it a little further, I believe I have some other issues going on with my OS. I may just be in need of a re-install of Windows because I have several errors as far as Windows firewall is concerned which is causing a lot of instability problems with my system. Thanks for all who have tried to help with the matter though.
