Printer Network Reconfiguration; Lost USB Cable

I have recently replaced my wireless router and therefore need to reconfigure my printer's network settings. Unfortunately, I have misplaced my USB cable which connects my laptop to the product. Is there any way around this problem? Thanks

Hi,

 

Why do you need USB cale to config the printer ? Can you use the panel (screen) on printer ? Worse case, a USB cable is around $5 to $10 only. What is your printer anyway ?

 

Regards.

I have a Photosmart all-in-one printer, which doesn't allow you to change the network settings on the panel.
