imageCLASSMF654Cdw - Are rear printer ports 2.0 or 3.0?

Does anyone know if the printer (A) port on the rear of a MF654Cdw is a 2.0 or 3.0?

Greetings,

It's USB 2.0. 😉

The USB port on the printer is a USB-B port. Computers have an A port.

Looks like I got the ports backwards. Is the printer port (B) a 2.0? I'm guessing it is.

Morning Shadowsports. I got the ports backwards. I should have said B instead of A. But I think you know that. It's still a 2.0 right?

Yea I got it backwards in my question.

A USB-B 3 port has a "second story" on top of the USB-B 2 "house-shaped" connector. USB-B 2 plug fits a 3 port.

Printers don't usually (if ever) have USB 3 port. Printers don't take advantage of USB 3 speeds.
