That explains the overcharging! No that was Staples, before the merger. BTW you are really pushing USB to try to run it out 15'. Better is a powered extension cable with a repeater. It's for my wife's new scanner. I have my scanner on a 15' USB cable and it works just fine. Hers will sit in a cabinet some distance from her desk and computer. That's where she wants it. Gee, I love my wireless world. Do you have a wireless solution for USB devices. I am still looking for one. That's easy http://www.walmart.com/search/search...ss+lan+adapter |

I recently bought one to convert old photos to electronic storage. It requires a cable. No wireless. |

Yep, or a scanner, or my tablet, or my desktop or my phone, etc., not a cable in sight except power to the desktop! |

I recently bought one to convert old photos to electronic storage. It requires a cable. No wireless. I don't see many real advantages of hooking up a flatbed scanner wirelessly if you are using the device in a home office. You still have to place the items to be scanned on the flatbed, which means you don't want the scanner too far away from your computer. Wireless printing is another matter. -- I'm a liberal because the militant fundamentalist ignorant science-denying religious xenophobic corporate oligarchy of modern Republican conservatism just doesn't work for me or my country. |
