USB 2.0 Type A to Type B cable for printers

This three-metre cable links USB 2.0 Type B devices such as printers, scanners, cameras, digital pianos and DACs to a USB Type A port on a computer. It supports data transfer at up to 480 Mbps and is backward compatible with USB 1.1 and 1.0 speeds. The male-to-male design requires no driver installation on Windows or macOS. It is not suitable for devices that need a USB 3.0 Type B connection or for charging high-power equipment.

Gold-plated connectors with foil and braid shielding

Corrosion-resistant gold plating on both plugs helps maintain reliable contact over time. Combined foil and braid shielding reduces electromagnetic interference for stable data transmission compared with wireless links. The PVC jacket protects the copper conductors during routine desk or studio use. The three-metre length allows flexible placement without excess slack. Connectors are fixed and cannot be replaced or reoriented.

Check your device port and required cable length

Verify that the peripheral uses a USB 2.0 Type B socket, not the larger USB 3.0 Type B variant. Ensure the host computer has an available USB Type A port. Confirm that three metres is sufficient for the distance between devices; longer runs are not supported by this cable. No software or firmware updates are needed for basic operation.

Questions about this item

What real-world speed does the USB 2.0 interface cap at on this cable?

The USB 2.0 Type A to Type B cable is rated for up to 480 megabits per second and falls back to USB 1.1 at 12 megabits per second or USB 1.0 at 1.5 megabits per second.

What physical clearance does the 3 metre cable need behind my printer or piano?

The cable is 3 metres long with male-to-male connectors, so allow enough depth for the Type B plug to seat fully without bending the cord sharply at the device port.

How do I install this cable and which step do people often miss?

Plug the Type A end into the computer and the Type B end into the printer, scanner, piano or DAC; the step users miss is pushing the square Type B connector in until it clicks, otherwise the link stays at low speed.
