Hi There,

I want a wired instead of wireless set up for the printer (below) that I'm going to purchase. 

I've learned that the USB cable is not included. 

Can anyone tell me which USB Cable is needed for this printer?

It is the: Canon PIXMA TS6420a All-in-One Wireless Inkjet Printer

Thanks in advance, 🙂

A standard USB A-B cable is all you need. Nothing special about it.

Did you find a cable that works?  The USB A-B cables (tested 2 of them) do not fit as the housing appears to be too deep for the printer cables.

They're just standard cables like this:
 USB A to BUSB A to B

The 1st cord I tried had too large of a housing around it.  I was finally able to get a cord to work.  It has to go in at a slight angle.  All is well.  Thanks.

Hi, I to have ordered 2 of them and both were to small. What did you get and where, crazy huh?

Thank you

Unable to find a USB cable. I have purchased 2 for the model I have TS6420 and the port on both of them was to small, like mentioned above.

Thank you

Karen
