My color inkjet printer arrived yesterday, and my B&W laser printer will be ordered next month. Tech guy will then be doing the monthly housecall to hook everything up, so I need to have everything good to go. My question is do I need any connectors, adapters, cables, or whatever for him to connect the two printers to my PC, and set it all up? I need to have on hand everything he might require to do the job. My PC is a Dell Optiplex 755, and both printers will be using either ethernet or USB only.

Yes, sometimes there might be a cable not included.
1. Check the list of things included when you purchased it.
2. Look in the box.
3. Hook it up yourself.


From out here, there is absolutely zero way to know what is or is not in the box of the unknown printer you purchased.

Have you opened the box to see what is inside? They often do include the cables, and a very easy to follow direction sheet.

From what I'm hearing via the reviews at Amazon, BH Photo, etc., sometimes manufacturers do not include all that is needed, or what they do include is junk. If I do not have everything necessary when my tech guy comes, it gets put off til next month, and I do not want to go another month without a printer!
