I just switched over to Kong Mod (DD-WRT v24-sp2 (07/31/12) stdkong - build 19545M) so that I could use USB printing, which I couldn't get to work on straight DD-WRT. But despite my repeated efforts, I can't get it to work.
Here is where I'm at:
I have Services>USB set to
Core USB Support ENABLED
USB Printer Support ENABLED
USB Storage Support DISABLED
I have a Brother 2140 that has worked before in a networked environment (using a semi-hacked circa 2004 Apple Airport).
I am using a Mac and I can telnet into the Netgear no problem, to check various settings etc.
To set up the printing, I've used various forms of the below instructions (I also tried IPP and LPD printing):
* Open System Preferences
* Open Print & Fax
* Click the + button below the list of installed printers
* Select the toolbar button called ‘IP’
* Set protocol to: HP Jetdirect – Socket
* Enter the address of your router followed by : and the port – ie. normally 192.168.1.1: 9100
* Leave ‘Queue’ blank
* Set a friendly name for your printer (whatever you like)
* And a friendly location (again, up to you)
* Print Using: choose ‘Select a driver to use’
* A list will pop up of all installed printer drivers – choose the one that works for you (see Note below)
* Add your printer
Any and all help would be GREATLY appreciated. I have no idea why this isn't working.
I've been trying to get USB printer to work for myself too. Haven't had much luck, although it seems in the ssh session that p910nd is running. Port 9100 is being listened to, and the connection is established..... but nothing comes out.

Any ideas?
My desktop IP is 192.168.1.82
The WNR3500L is set up as a repeater at 192.168.1.4.
Thanks.
