Default usb leads

Hi
I am buying a new cannon printer, can I use my existing usb lead from a samsung printer? It has a cylinder shape built into the lead and I don't know what this does or if it makes it non transferable. Thanks in advance for any advice.

As long as the lead fits, then it will work. USB leads are all interchangable.

Most printer comes with own USB cable, why need to use other barnds.

Also, printer cable leads with special shapes are more likely not to work on other brands.

Hope this helps!
