Thinking will not make it so. I have yet to see any other Canon printer
that takes a cartridge resembling those used by the Radio Shack CGP-220 /
Canon 1090. I DO have a Canon BJ-200ex in daily use, which uses the BC-02
cartridge pictured in two of the listings. There is NO compatibility
between them. The CGP-220 uses a reservoir cartridge with a self sealing
port to connect the ink feed to the head. The BC-xx line of cartridges has
the print head built into the cartridge.
