USB 2.0 A-to-B printer cable

This one-foot USB 2.0 cable connects a Type-A port on a computer to a Type-B port on a peripheral. It is built for users who need a short, reliable link for printers, scanners or external hard drives. The male-to-male design fits standard desktop and laptop ports without adapters.

Lifetime-warranted build for daily use

StarTech.com specifies top-quality materials and expert construction to withstand repeated plugging and unplugging. The compact 1 ft length reduces cable clutter on a desk or in a laptop bag while keeping the connectors aligned for a secure fit. Black PVC jacket resists everyday abrasion.

Spare cord ready for travel or replacement

The cable serves as a direct replacement for a lost or damaged printer lead and is short enough to carry as a spare for mobile work. It supports the full USB 2.0 specification up to 480 Mbps, so data moves at the rate the peripheral expects. No driver or software installation is required.
