Having trouble sourcing this cable (photo). The square end fits my Cannon printer, but can’t find a lead with , at one end square as photo but the needs to be smaller fitting to fit my iPad. Can any one help? Colyboy

Depending on the iPad you need a lead to connect to USB-B. Probably a Lightning to USB-B, or possibly a USB-C to USB-B. Is it for a printer or a midi device perhaps?

Maybe something like this then you could use your existing cable?

The smaller end looks more like the new type "C" phone, tablet connecter

I agree, it looks very like a USB-C plug. There are three other plugs in common use: mini-USB, micro-USB and Lightning. I'm no expert on iPhones and iPads, but I'd guess the Lightning is the one you want.
