USB cords for printers are standard in size and shape. This means that they have the same sizes and shape to avoid consumers to be confused. I provided the image below for the USB cord. The port where you will connect this cable is usually located at the back of the printer. Please refer to the user's manual for the proper setup of your device. Here's the link:
