[pchelpers] Re: new Canon printer

Hi Re-Na,
The Canon printer will run on a USB 2.0 A-B cable. Almost any appliance
store should have one. The printer will run off a USB 1.0 port with the same
cable but a USB 2.0 port will be faster if you have one on the PC.

Cheers

Subject: [pchelpers] new Canon printer


I went shopping with a friend of mine so we took our husbands.  It was
in another city.  Well, they were bored and decided to go on to Little
Rock and come back later and get us which was fine with us.  While
there, he got me this printer:

Pixma MP500      9600 x 2400 dpi!

I can't find anywhere in the documentation what usb cable to get to plug
into the printer and the computer.  Are those just standard?  My husband
didn't think to ask and I guess I'll have to see if Staples here has one
tomorrow when I go to town.

Let me know about the cable, ok?  Thanks.

<Also, did he do a good job?>  Normally I would 'research' what I buy
and "I" would be the one going to get my printer.  So this was a
surprise.  I'm not going to complain though as I was needing something
and the price on this one was really good.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
