It depends on the cable you are using.

USB: this cable looks like a small square on one side ( the printer side) and the other side looks like a flat rectangle ( computer side) you would plug this into a free usb port on the computer. Most newer computers have them in the front and back. And older computer ma only have one in the back.

Ethernet: this looks like a phone cord but bigger. Both ends are the same. Your ethernet port will be on the back on the computer and will look like a phone jack, again just a little bigger.
