Printer Cable; Connecting A Usb Printer - Dell Inspiron 1720 Owner's Manual

Printer Cable

Your printer connects to your computer with a USB cable. Your printer may
not come with a printer cable, so if you purchase a cable separately, ensure
that it is compatible with your printer and computer. If you purchased a
printer cable at the same time you purchased your computer, the cable may
arrive in the computer's shipping box.

You can connect USB devices while the computer is turned on.
