Printer cables.

Can you buy them somewhere? And use any kind to hook it up from the computer to the printer? I just realized we gave ours to the cable company on accident like a year ago and kept the HDMI chord they gave us. It was an Epson NX300. Can I just use any USB cable?

Yeah, it's very rare you find a printer that has its own special cable. What you're looking for is called a USB A - B cable. One end will be the normal end you're familiar with (that goes into the computer), and the other (that goes into the printer) will be more square shaped.

You shouldn't have too much trouble finding one.

Majority of Printers will be using USB cables, usually USB-A which goes in your PC to USB-B which is "Square". There is a image of them here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB This should be easy to find as they're commonly used.

Older, and I really mean Older PC printers use Parallel Ports.. which look like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_port This is a Older type and you may need to find a special stockist for this just as they're where going out 10 years ago!
