First of all, printer makers need to include cable with new printer.

So I checked out monoprice and a 6' USB printer cable is about $5 including shipping.

Any other places that are cheaper? TIA.

Try a dollar store if $5 is too much for a shipped cable from Monoprice.

Some do, most dont. Especially on the cheaper models. They havent for years, primarily because people complained that the printers were too expensive and they didnt need another cable laying around that they werent going to use.


As others said, dollar store

This. The computer retail store I work at seels them for about $3-$4, any "good" local computer store would be another option.

I just buy from Monoprice in small lots to keep shipping down. Pick up a bunch or random cables you may need in the future while you're ordering the USB.

You can actually go to your local Ross or Marshalls and pick up one for cheap. Failing that it's monoprice.com

BigLots has them. I'm surprised you don't have a collection. I have a drawer full from miscellaneous peripherals I've bought over the years; but none from printers :^D

Good suggestion about the dollar store, I will swing by and see if they have one. Thanks for all that replied.

I don't get the picture from Fobot. <scratching head>.

He is inviting you to his house, where he will then incapacitate you and imprison you in a pit in his basement. He will then lower a basket with a string with lotion in it. Then he command you (using the third person) to put lotion on your skin, or he will spray you with a hose.
