Despite what others say, the connector is standard USB ON BOTH ENDS. On the PC end, it is the standard type-A and on the printer end, type-B. I promise.

Yes it is compatible with Win 8. The cable you will need Is a standard computer cable which only has a USB connector on the computer side. The printer side has a standard printer connector which is not USB.

Couldn't tell you as I have windows 7. It has NEVER let me down. The scanner is still flawless & this thing prints like a champ. It's slow. But that's the ONLY down side. It prints on one side only.

I am sorry, I don't know. I just use to hook my mouse and a small USB thumb drive. It doesn't work when I hook the printer to it.

Yes, this printer is compatible with Windows 8. If the software CD cannot install the printer, I recommend going to HP support website to download the latest software. The link is this: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-Deskjet-1050-All-in-One-Printer-series---J4/4027462/model/4027464#Z7_3054ICK0KGTE30AQO5O3KA30R1

Yes it no problems with windows 8. Just plug it into your powered USB 2.0 port, the driver will be installed, and you can start reading and writing disks in no time. No power source needed, it is USB powered

Hi, this printer is compatible with windows 7 only, as stated on the box. I bought it because the description said windows 8 or 7. I gave it to my mother and she says it is very nice, the features work great. I hope this helps you. Good luck! : )

This printer also works fine with Windows 8. I suggest going to Canon's website to download the latest drivers no matter what OS you're using.

It's compatible w/Windows &, XP, 8, 8.1. The problem I had was that it just stopped working. The usb just died after about 8 months.

Yes it has a usb output. But needs a registration code and does not work with newer Windows programs (8.0).

There are no Windows 8 drivers available for this printer. Windows 7 is the last version of the MS OS that this printer will work on.

I used an HP printer with a USB connect. The computer found and loaded the drivers, no problem. I just had to go into the control panel and change the default printer.

Your printer compatibility is the major concern. Should you have the proper cable end, the USB is a given with any operating system when the computer has ... USB.

Yes but make sure the drivers for the USB connect are available for printer first!
