I don't think I've had a printer come with a cord in like 20 years.

Well to be fair this was literally the first printer I've ever bought, at 31. It advertised on the box that it could connect by wifi or by cord, so I expected it to come with all accessories needed for that.

I bought mine with cord only just a few years ago. Staying that way too

I sold printers (and other tech stuff) 20 years ago and can confirm, they have never come with USB cables, even before they were wireless.
