Do you remember when printers actually came with a cord to connect to your computer?? Well the ones that I buy do not have them! Then I have to figure out how to set them up as wi-fi air printers and turn off this to set up that while putting it on an unsecure network of its own every time. The last printer that I bought I could not ever get it set up! I had to throw it away and then I found out that you had to have a subscription to buy ink and Walmart did not carry that ink online or in the store, though they sold the printer!!! so this time I had to set up this printer that I have had for like 6 months, still in the box, because I was worried that I couldn’t get this one set up either. I wanted it set up to my computer and not my iPhone, because I just wanted it to be! Darn it! For some reason my computer said no to my other printer that I had set up on it and it never could be again used from my computer because it decided that one day. Anyway, again no cord. I looked at the port on the printer and it had a certain shape for the connection. I have saved all of my cords from different things over the years just in case I need an unofficial accessory set-up for something at some point. I am a cord hoarder, and a screw hoarder. I just happened to have this cord in my bag of cords!!!!! Here it is! I have always wondered how to get a cord for this situation! All it is, is a type of USB cord! I didn’t know!
Did I think to look at the port at any time that shows the universal pic of the USB insignia? No I didn’t.
