USB B to USB C printer cable for modern laptops

This 6.6 ft cable links a USB-C host such as a MacBook Pro, Dell XPS or Surface Book to a USB 2.0 Type-B printer, scanner or MIDI controller. It is built for users who need a direct wired link instead of a wireless setup. The copper construction supports USB 2.0 High-Speed transfer up to 480 Mbps.

Sustained wired throughput for print and audio tasks

The cable maintains a steady 480 Mbps connection during long print jobs or multi-track recording sessions, avoiding the drop-outs common with Wi-Fi. USB 2.0 signalling keeps latency low and data flow consistent across the full 6.6 ft length. No active electronics are required, so performance does not degrade with heat.

Check your ports before ordering

The Type-B end fits only USB 2.0 Type-B female ports — it will not mate with USB 3.1 Type-B, Mini-USB or standard USB-A sockets. The USB-C plug must connect to a host computer with a USB-C or Thunderbolt port; it does not work directly from an Android phone or tablet. Verify both sides of your existing gear match these connectors.

Questions about this item

Does the 6.6 ft cable run warm or draw noticeable power when printing all day?

The cable is a passive copper link rated for USB 2.0 High-Speed at 480 Mbps and carries only the modest current needed for data; it does not generate perceptible heat during continuous use.

What port must my laptop already have to use the USB-C end of this cable?

Your computer needs a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port; the connector will not work with an Android phone or tablet USB-C port for direct printing.

Will the USB 2.0 Type-B plug fit the square port on my older laser printer or MIDI keyboard?

Yes, the male USB 2.0 Type-B connector matches the standard square port found on legacy printers, scanners, MIDI controllers and similar USB-B 2.0 devices.
