You cannot connect your laptop to a projector using only a USB cable. Projectors require a specific type of connection for displaying content from a laptop, such as HDMI, VGA, or DisplayPort.
While some projectors may have a USB port for other functions, like reading files from a USB drive, it's not typically used for displaying content from a laptop.
To connect your laptop to a projector, you'll need a cable that's compatible with both devices.
Here are some common connections:
- HDMI: The most widely used connection for modern projectors and laptops.
- VGA: A standard connection for older projectors and laptops.
- DisplayPort: A newer connection that offers higher resolution and refresh rates.
To determine the correct connection for your projector and laptop, check the ports on both devices.
