I was referring to the older Canon printers or Canon-engine based
printers like my old Color Stylewriter.
I have bottles of refill ink that I can't use in Epsons because it's
a different formulation.
Even today, I understand that Canon uses a different printing
mechanism that uses heat, which is why you can't use dye sublimation
ink in Canon printers.
