Not a lot you can write about a printer cable. Belkin are the masters of covering their packaging with claims of gold contacts and superb transfer speeds, to be honest I haven't the time or the inclination to test these claims. All I can say is, I attached it to my computer, then to the printer and printed a test page, which came off fine and I've been using it ever since.
The build quality is nice too, a good cable all round.
This was shown as "frequently bought together" [with a Canon LiDE 200 scanner] on the Amazon website - but it doesn't fit the scanner! Kikatek, the supplier, were surprisingly unhelpful about this. If this "bundling" error was Amazon's as opposed to Kikatek's, it's the first mistake I've ever know Amazon to make but I see the same mistake is still "up" on the Amazon site but now with a different cable supplier.
