I was trying to make the printer connect to the computer and I was following the instruction.  However, it ask me to choose one way to connect which is to use the USB cable.  That make me so confused 🤷‍♀️.   From the box said It needs the internet connection to set up the printer but in the printer only has 2 connections ( one is to connect the power, one is to connect the USB).

So what should I do?!!

USB cable needs to be purchased separately, standard cable USB A to USB B. Internet connection is needed for your computer to download driver/software from the internet, not for the printer.

Pretty frustrating to realize the printer does not come with the cable. Even a ''shorter'' one in the meantime would have been better than nothing. At least say it clearly on the box ...because you know, i would have picked one up while I was ALREADY at the store!
