Hello, I am setting up an HP laserjet m1132 MFP printer for a print server on a Keenetic Giga router (KN-1010), I inserted a wire from the printer into the usb, the printer can be seen in the router interface itself, in \\ 192.168.1.1 you can see the printer, after clicking connect / open the printer gets an error that there is no driver and asks to point to the inf file, tried to install different drivers, opened exe files through winrar and tried to find something from there - in the end, nothing. Help with solving this problem

Have you tried connecting the printer directly to the PC, installing the drivers, checking, and then connecting to the print server?

I would advise you to install the printer not via SMB, but via RAW aka JetDirect (port 9100).
More reliable, but requires certain gestures from the user.
