Title: Canon PG40 not working in printer
Post by: newcom on November 02, 2010, 05:53:47 AM

I have a PIXMA 1200 printer which won't accept Canon PG40 ink cartridges. I am using the printer for cartridge testing and using genuine cartridges NOT remanufactured ones. This seems to be a common problem with this printer and i never have an issue with the CL41 colour cartridges. Has anyone else ever had this problem and if so how did you fix it?

Then why not just used the secondary cartridge that works with your PIXMA against the branded/original which is troubling you?
