I would like USB cable included as well for installation purposes. I had trouble setting up the printer wireless until it finally found the signal.

I'm with ya. I still used wired hookups, instead of wifi, when possible. Stuff responds faster when it's wired, especially vg consoles.

Because most people use wifi and everyone has tons of spare cables.

They actually make printers that are no wifi capable... and you bought that one?

Because chances are, if you're replacing a broken printer, you have a cable already. Hell, I have like 10 laying around. No need to needlessly litter the world with cables in every box of every kind....

Mine's:

a) Wireless
b) Even if I would want to connect it physically, in the last 15 years I got so many USB cables with different devices I had actually trouble stocking them for a while, so finding a cable is just grabbing a random one from my collection box.

Same reason Nintendo doesn't include a charger with their 3DS.
