Connection type and length
This six-foot USB 2.0 A-to-B cable links a computer to peripherals that use the square Type-B port. It suits home-office users who need a reliable replacement for a lost or damaged printer lead. The male-to-male design plugs directly into host and device without adapters. Certified construction ensures consistent signalling at the rated speed.
Build integration
The cable requires a free USB-A port on the host and a USB-B socket on the peripheral, freeing no internal slots or drive bays. Its two-metre reach lets you place a printer or scanner further from the PC than a standard short lead allows. No drivers or external power are needed for the connection itself. The moulded strain relief protects the joint during routine desk movement.
Device compatibility headroom
The specification lists tested compatibility with models such as Canon Pixma MX922, MX522 and MX452, Epson XP-310 and XP-410, Brother HL 2270DW and MFCJ450DW, and HP Envy 4500. It will not serve devices that demand USB 3.x or USB-C connectors, nor will it charge high-current tablets that require dedicated power negotiation. Buyers needing longer runs or faster throughput should look for a different cable class.

Questions about this item
Does the 2.0 spec limit the throughput when I run a long print job?
The cable is certified to the 2.0 standard, so sustained transfers stay within that specification.
Will the cable get warm or draw extra power if the printer runs all day?
It is a passive copper cable with no active electronics, so it does not generate heat or increase power draw during continuous use.
My printer uses a square USB B port — does this cable fit without an adapter?
The cable has a standard USB A plug on one end and a USB B plug on the other, matching the square port on printers such as the Canon Pixma MX922 or Brother HL 2270DW.
