90° Cable adapter for printer.

[Hassan170]

So I have a printer and the power cable sticks out like a sort thumb. This goes for the weird USB port as well. This is a roya plain the ass ad I can't put it flush again the wall and it takes up valuable desk space. 

I remember watching ITX build videos and noticed that some of the PSUs had 90° adapters. I was wondering is this something I could buy and use. Additionally is there such an adapter for that weird USB Port on the back?

USB cables , MOST of them with right/left angle B connector (the one on printers) : https://www.digikey.com/short/8h0rnftb

LOOK at pictures, or DATASHEET where picture isn't available. I'd probably stick to usb 2.0 for maximum compatibility, it's not like printer needs more than 480 mbps.

 

POWER cables, right angle or left angle IEC C13 (the standard one on psus and monitors and printers)  : https://www.digikey.com/short/48tpbbn5

For laser printers, get one rated for at least 16A (if it doesn't say, gauge 14 AWG or 16 AWG)

^ I'm kind of looking for the opposite where the B connector is 90° not the USB connector. 

 

The power cables don't suit my requirements because they would be pointing downwards into the table when plugged in. I also should mention I have a laser printer since you pointed that out.

Dude....   I gave you a list with 23 results ... the filter only has option to show "right angle connectors". Scroll down and pick the right angle B connectors.

 

Example  : https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/usbgear/ARBR-0304W/13561535

Around 1400 in stock.

 

USB 3.0 right angle. Depends on your printer, if you can use the connector. On some printers, you can't plug the usb 3.0 connector because of plastic of the case, or due to header being depressed into the case.

Difference between them is the cable length, that's all.

Oh. Oh. Thank you and I apologise. I got intimated and didn't see that. Thanks for the help.
