Question 1

How long is the cable from the hub, I need it to reach 4ft?

Accepted Answer

I am not sure I can still match the hub with the cable that it came with.  However, the cable is of a common type, male A on computer side and male mini A on the hub's.  Personally I have tons of such cables that, over time, came with various devices.  In my own case, I wanted to use as short cable as possible, since I wanted to carry routinely the hub with my netbook, and had no problem finding a suitable one.  This hub is a very good one - I finally found a stability after many mediocre hubs that either malfunctioned from the beginning or started after a while.

Question 2

I need to share one printer with two computers, will this work for me?

Accepted Answer

I don't think so. The hub could be used, though, to connect 2 printers to one computer.  For your situation, I would suggest to connect both your computers and the printer to one Ethernet network, provided your printer has the network capability. If that capability is lacking, you should get a printer network adapter.  If connecting the printer to 2 computers without a network, you should look for a device that has the term 'switch' in its name.

Question 3

How long is the power cord for this unit?

Accepted Answer

I'm guessing its about 4 ft.  I have it sitting on my desk and plugged into a power strip on floor about a foot away horizontally and there is still a decent amount of slack in the cord.  Its definitely not one of those 18" jobs.  Hope that helps

Question 4
