    The cable new laptops actually need. This 10ft Cable Leader cable has USB-C on the computer end and the square USB Type-B plug on the device end, connecting a modern laptop straight to a printer, scanner or MIDI keyboard.

    It exists because of a very common mismatch: printers and audio gear still use USB-B, a connector that has barely changed in twenty years, while laptops have moved to USB-C. The usual workaround is a USB-A to USB-B cable plus a USB-C adapter. This replaces that stack with one cord.

    Hi-Speed USB 2.0 at 480 Mbps is the right speed for the job - printers and scanners move small amounts of data, and USB 2.0 has been the printer standard for two decades.

    Compatibility covers HP, Canon, Epson, Brother, Lexmark, Xerox, Samsung and Dell printers and scanners, plus the USB-B ports on MIDI keyboards, digital pianos, audio interfaces and DACs. Shielding keeps electrical noise out of the data lines during long jobs.

    USB Generation Quick Reference: USB 2.0 (Hi-Speed) = 480 Mbps | USB 3.0 / USB 3.2 Gen 1 (SuperSpeed) = 5 Gbps | USB 3.2 Gen 2 = 10 Gbps. USB 3.0, USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 3.2 Gen 1 are three names for the identical 5 Gbps standard.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Q: Will this work with my printer?
    A: Yes, if your printer has the square USB Type-B port, which nearly all desktop printers and scanners do.

    Q: Do I still need a USB-C adapter?
    A: No. This cable is USB-C on one end, so it plugs directly into the laptop.

    Q: Can I use it with a MIDI keyboard or audio interface?
    A: Yes - those devices use the same USB-B port as printers.

    Q: Is USB 2.0 fast enough for printing?
    A: Yes. Printers transfer small amounts of data and have used USB 2.0 as standard for two decades.

    Q: Which length should I choose?
    A: 3ft for a printer beside the desk, 6ft for a normal room layout, 10ft to reach across a room or behind furniture. Backed by Cable Leader's Lifetime Warranty and US-based support. Ships from Chino, California.
