That's your big complaint? You need a USB cable?

Obviously you've never owned a Dell.

Spider · 01-01-2009, 08:14 AM

so where do i get a USB cable at ?

Spider · 01-01-2009, 08:15 AM

you cant even hook this damn thing up to a desktop only 1 cord power and that is it

ScottXray · 01-01-2009, 08:17 AM

If nothing else is arounnd find a rat shack. They have cables at a great (NOT) price.

Honestly, i would just break into a house and steal one.

If you aren't comfortable with that, you can to any office supply or tech store. Any place like Walmart, Target, etc would also carry them.

You don't need a disk. Plug the USB cable into the laptop and the printer will be found.

For the USB cable - BestBuy, Circut City, Office Depot, etc will have one.

watermock · 01-01-2009, 08:40 AM

Spider · 01-01-2009, 08:42 AM

See my New Job , not only do I make more money , I got alot more freedom , and alot more control over the loads and where i go , so I need a scanner to scan documents to my email , then email to the home office , and receive documents etc ....... I can spend 50-60 bucks just on the load confirmations , insurance , registration paper work to a broker , or I can just scan and email ....Basically I work for an independent contractor thats a in house carrier for Ritchie bros auctions ..... freaking dream job
