How to connect the printer and PC at a distance of 6m?

There is a cabinet with a printer, scanner, plotter.
There is a table with a computer 6 meters from it.
How can I connect this to my computer.
I thought just to throw 3 USB cables of 6 meters each under the plinth, or you need to throw Ethernet with adapters to USB, or maybe there is a router with three USB ports. Won't the PC lose the printer on such a long cable?
What is the best way to deal with such a situation?

If it would be clear what kind of printer, scanner and plotter models, then it would be possible to understand what connection options they have. And in a simple way - take 1 old (or weak) PC (or laptop), configure all 3 devices on it and you can add it to other PCs without problems. If you need to connect to only 1 PC, then only the cable.
but in general it is useful to read https://naseti.com/o-routerah/podklyuchenie-printe...
