    • Thank You, I love it
Size: 10 Feet Number of Items: 1
I have a Canon PIXMA 920 that is a few years old. It's a wireless printer. Before Windows 10 came out I had no problems with it. Then I moved, and Windows 10 came out. Once I moved, the printer connection became unreliable. it depended on how it felt, deciding if it wished to print or not. I reset the connections, downloaded and updated new drivers. I kept resetting the wireless access point. It would establish a connection but not hold it. I spent so much time and experienced frustration running back and forth between the printer and the router only to get a printer error message. Cleared the documents and started again. After much reading and researching online, someone mentioned that they had just went with a LAN connection between the printer and computer. My printer is near my computer so that wasn't a big sacrifice other than losing the "wow" factor of printing wirelessy. I wasn't sure about the fit but couldn't haul the printer to the store so I searched for a cable on Amazon and this one fit. Was delivered in a couple of days. It fits, and slid perfect and easily into the printer and computer ports. Fortunately I had the original installation disk for the printer and had to reinstall the printer on the computer as just changing it from wireless to wired didn't work, but the printer was detected easily and quickly by the computer, length is long enough to easily run between the computer and the printer and it actually PRINTS!!!! It works so well that even though I inadvertently disconnected the printer power source, it printed the unprinted document still in the queue as well as my new document when I plugged the printer back in. Thank you. Those of you that are strugglng with wireless printers and connections; this inexpensive cable might be what saves the relationship between you and your printer. I was ready to heave my printer out the front door before I got it ... show more

    • Fantastic Value and Performance – A Must-Have Cable!
Size: 6 Feet Number of Items: 1
I recently purchased the Amazon Basics USB-A to USB-B 2.0 Cable and I couldn't be happier with my purchase! Not only was the price incredibly affordable, but the performance of this cable has exceeded my expectations. Right out of the box, the cable felt sturdy and well-made. The connectors fit snugly into my devices, providing a secure connection that I can rely on. I've used this cable to connect my printer to my computer, and the data transfer speeds have been consistently fast and reliable. No more waiting around for files to transfer – this cable gets the job done quickly. What truly sets this cable apart is its reliability. I've had experiences with other cables where they start to fray or show signs of wear after just a few uses. However, the Amazon Basics cable seems to be built to last. The durable construction gives me confidence that this cable will stand the test of time. In conclusion, I can't recommend the Amazon Basics USB-A to USB-B 2.0 Cable enough. It's affordable, well-made, and performs exceptionally well. If you're in need of a high-quality cable that won't break the bank, look no further. This cable has certainly made my life easier, and I'm sure it will do the same for you! ... show more

    • Excellent Signal Integrity and Solid Build Quality
Size: 10 Feet Number of Items: 1
The Amazon Basics USB-A to USB-B 2.0 cable is exactly what a quality USB cable should be—dependable, well-constructed, and capable of delivering consistent performance across a wide range of devices. I primarily use it to connect printers, audio interfaces, MIDI controllers, and external hard drives, and it has performed flawlessly. The USB 2.0 connection provides stable data transfer rates of up to 480 Mbps, which is more than sufficient for printing, firmware updates, audio interfaces, and most peripheral devices. One thing I immediately noticed was the quality of the connectors. The gold-plated contacts provide excellent conductivity and help resist oxidation over time, resulting in a secure connection with no intermittent disconnects or communication errors. The connectors fit snugly without being overly tight, which reduces wear on both the cable and device ports. The cable itself feels durable thanks to its thick outer jacket and solid strain relief at both ends. This is especially important if the cable is frequently plugged and unplugged or transported between locations. The flexibility strikes a nice balance—sturdy enough to withstand daily use while remaining easy to route behind desks and equipment racks. From a technical standpoint, signal integrity has been excellent. I experienced no dropped print jobs, corrupted file transfers, or communication issues when connecting external storage devices or USB audio hardware. The shielding appears to do a good job minimizing electromagnetic interference, which is especially valuable in environments with multiple electronic devices. As someone who works with computers, music production equipment, and peripherals on a regular basis, I appreciate having cables that simply work every time. This cable has proven to be reliable enough that I've purchased additional ones for my home office and studio. ... show more

    • Good purchase. Works great, and appreciate having the extra length.
Size: 16 Feet Number of Items: 1
I purchased this 16 foot long USB-A to USB-B so called printer cable to install a new printer. It was recommended I install the printer using a wired connection rather than wirelessly to make sure all the needed software and updates actually got installed ok, which I guess people had been having some problems with when trying to set up this particular printer wirelessly. I am not sure I honestly chose the best option for the installation though, as the new printer works great, but only if this Amazon cable remains connected to both the printer and my laptop. Disconnect it and there is no printing whatsoever at the moment, but that is a different problem. I did actually purchase the longer cable length because of those concerns about wireless printing, and I am glad I did, as at least I do not have to be standing holding a laptop right next to the printer in order for it to print, and I can at least stretch the cable out into a different room up to 16 feet away. The printer cable got quite a work out yesterday, as I was rushing to print out a large and lengthly file that needs to be mailed out this weekend. The cable's connections to both my printer and my computer were tight and held well. The cord did not accidentally disconnect at either end because I stretched the new cord out as far as it would reach. Because my computer uses USB-C and has no USB-A port, the one end of the printer cord actually had to first be connected to a USB-A to USB-C cord, then finally connected to the computer. The cord itself is very flexible, and not at all stiff, making to easy to stretch out completely flat going in any direction. Overall, if I ever needed another one, I would not hesitate to purchase it again, as it is well made. ... show more
