What is the difference between PFI-106M and other PFI-106 cartridges?

Troubleshooting
Printer not recognizing the magenta ink cartridge
Ensure the cartridge is correctly seated. Remove and reinsert it firmly. Check for any protective tape that may still be attached. Clean the cartridge's electrical contacts and the printer's corresponding contacts with a dry, lint-free cloth.
Poor print quality or streaks in magenta areas
Run a print head cleaning cycle through your printer's maintenance menu. If the issue persists, perform a nozzle check and consider a more thorough head cleaning or alignment. Ensure the correct paper type is selected in the print settings.
Ink level shows empty immediately after installation
Verify that the correct cartridge model (PFI-106M) has been installed. Sometimes a printer's firmware may need an update to recognize new cartridges properly. Consult your printer's manual for firmware update procedures.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Replacing the Canon PFI-106M cartridge is straightforward. Ensure your Canon imagePROGRAF printer is powered on and not in the middle of a print job. Open the printer's cover, remove the old magenta ink cartridge, and insert the new PFI-106M cartridge until it clicks into place.
