I really just messed with the Apple Airport Utility and went through the setup step by step. I noticed that my printer was not initially showing up listed as a USB connected device in the utility. I really just played around a little with the settings and shut off the printer and powered it back on. All of a sudden, Bingo, it was there and I then could print as normal. When I switched to a wireless printer, it was recognized instantly and it took all of about ten seconds to get working.
