[bcab] Re: help needed obtaining a serial to USB connectivity cable

Alexander surely do you have a USB cable like say from a scanner or something that you could just unplug and try it on the printer?

Hi George,

Thank you for your message.

Having looked at the printer again after reading the message
to which I am now replying, am I correct in thinking that if
I'm looking at the front of the printer the USB port is a
square hole on the right hand side?

As I agree with you that the printer is small and light,
I'll take it to our local branch of PC World and see if I
can get a cable for it, but going by what you say, I'll need
a cable with one USB connection at each end, as, if what you
are saying is correct, I need to be able to connect the
printer to the computer by passing a cable from the USB
connection on the printer to one of the USB connections at
the back of the tower..  I do have two USB ports on the
front of the tower, but I wish to use them for USB devices
which can be easily disconnected, rather than devices which
I wish to leave permanently connected.

Thank you again for your help.
