What Type Of Usb Cable Do Printers Use To Connect To The Comp?
does every printer have a different usb cable, or is there a cable that will fit most, cus i want to buy a used printer and people dont include the cable and its driving me crazy trying to figure out what type of cable i should get, becus i dont know if its a normal usb to usb cable or a usb to little usb cable, please help, please
Most printer require a usb A/B cable. the A end which looks slim will fit into your computer. The B end looks like a small square and fits into the printer.
There are four different types of usb cables. check on the manufactures website for the type of cable needed.
Every printer I have seen uses an AB cable. Even though stores charge up to $20 for them, they should not cost more than $4 delivered. If you can’t find it for that price on ebay or whatever, email sales@ccs-digital.com . You can also contact them for cheap compatible cartridges for Epson printers which work well. http://ccs-digital.com/ink.asp
Most printers now use an AB USB cable. One side has a square which you plug into the printer and the other has a normal USB end that’s flat which you plug into your computer.
Normal one is the A-B cable. the ends should look like a flat rectangle and a 5-sided square.
