6 days agoIf your USB-C device isn't charging, here's the quick fix I always consider first
Although the printer may have a USB-C port, it lacks the necessary hardware to support USB-C charging protocols. On a more technical level, the manufacturer opted to save a few cents by omitting some basic components (typically just two resistors, which cost virtually nothing) to accommodate different power inputs. Since USB-C doesn't supply power without first negotiating what the device needs, no power is delivered.
