USB 2.0 A-to-B printer cable
This six-foot cable connects any USB-B printer, scanner, fax machine, MIDI controller or DAC to a standard USB-A port on a computer. It carries data at up to 480 megabits per second and works with Windows 10, Windows 11, macOS and Linux without extra drivers. Gold-plated connectors and a thick PVC jacket resist wear, bending and corrosion for long-term use.
Shielded construction for clean signals
The shielded design minimises electromagnetic interference and signal loss during normal printing or scanning tasks. Power draw follows the USB 2.0 specification, so the host port supplies all current without an external adapter. No active electronics or fans are present, so operation is completely silent.
Sustained throughput for long jobs
Under continuous load such as multi-page print runs or extended MIDI sessions the cable maintains full 480 Mbps bandwidth. Shielding and gold-plated contacts prevent degradation over time, keeping error rates low across the entire six-foot length. The passive copper construction has no thermal throttling or duty-cycle limits.

Questions about this item
How do I connect the USB-A and USB-B ends to my computer and printer?
Plug the rectangular USB-A connector into any free USB port on the computer and the square USB-B connector into the printer; the cable is male-to-male on both ends so no adapter is needed.
Will the gold-plated connectors or PVC jacket need replacement over time?
The gold-plated connectors resist corrosion and the thick PVC jacket protects against bending wear, so no scheduled replacement is required under normal use.
What is the maximum data rate I can sustain during a long print job?
The cable is rated for USB 2.0 speeds up to 480 Mbps, which is the limit you will see during sustained transfers.
