The printer has been used in the past with USB and I can get the network to find the printer when it is wired through the ethernet. No matter what I try, I cannot get the wireless printer to find my Netgear 802.11n wireless router, even when they are next to each other. I find the manual confusing.
Hi, Be sure to check the printer settings to make sure the wifi option is selected on the printer itself. Once wifi is turned on reboot your computer. It should find it then. Check back if that doesn't solve it and together we can continue the troubleshooting.

Delete the printer and then add it back. That fixed it for me.

I realize that you posted this question over a month ago...but I'll still give you your answer in case anyone else is also experiencing this.
All you need to do is enter in the correct password...the one you gave your router. Which I realize was probably a while back, and you didn't write it down (tisk tisk), so here's how you find out what you typed, way back when.
open up your internet browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, ect...). Now in the search bar type in your routers IP address.
mine is: 192.168.2.1
yours might be the same or might be something similar...like: 192.168.1.1
only type that, and include the dots...no www junk.
once you typed it in, hit enter.
and now you should be in your router...then steps hold true for all routers I believe (mines a belkin).
it will ask for a password, most people simply leave theirs the default password, my password was nothing....literally, I just left it blank and clicked 'next'. yours might be 'admin'...a google search should help you find your routers default password.
Ounce you have the routers password, you have access to change a lot of the routers features...including finding out that pesky passphrase that your in search of.
your welcome.
I accept cash & credit. I'll send you the bill. ;)
SOURCE: Wireless printing does not work
For an effective wireless connection, the printer should be connected to one of the LAN ports of a configured wireless router. This way, every pc(mostly laptops with wireless capability) can print to the printer. You will need a wireless adapter for desktop pcs to access any resource made available wirelessly ok. Good luck
