We have several customers running our POS software that insist upon getting USB receipt printers. I don't like these devices in the kitchen because the cables always come loose. Does anyone know if there is a way to "clip" the USB cable into the printer?
 
I use the cable loops that I carry. (They sell them at Home Depot and the others. They are plastic and wrap around a coax cable with a place for a screw.) On the U200 series, I screw one to the back center of the printer so that it hangs in the opening for the cables with a short self-drilling screw and use a small zip tie to secure the data cable and the power cable to the mounted loop. Works like a champ.
