12' usb cable
#5
Brother is just worried that as the cable gets longer the signal weakens a bit due to resistance, etc. If you get a decent quality cable it's unlikely you will have a problem. Worse comes to worse, you could get errors printing, but it wouldn't hurt the computer or the printer. (Tripping on the cable, however ...)

There was a thread down a bit about the ferrite "beads" used on some cables to block interference. If you had a problem, you could add these at each end which might help. I think Radio Shack carries them.


Good luck.
