Your records indicate you purchased a Canon PIXMA G2430 on March 19, 2026. It is important to note that the GI-43 series is not compatible with your PIXMA G2430.Â
- Your Device Requirements: The PIXMA G2430 is a 4-color printer that utilizes the Canon GI-41 series ink bottles (Black, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow).
- Why it won’t fit: Canon ink cartridges are not one-size-fits-all; the GI-43 series uses different physical “keys” and firmware that will not work with a GI-41 printer
