Canon 5274C001AA PFI-2100 V 160 ml Violet ink cartridges (genuine brands)

Genuine Canon Violet ink for GP-series printers

The Canon PFI-2100 V 5274C001AA is a single 160 ml pigment-based Violet cartridge built for the imagePROGRAF GP-2000 and GP-4000. It supplies the violet channel required by those wide-format printers for accurate colour reproduction. Photographers and graphic designers who rely on consistent output for proofing or final prints use this genuine tank to maintain the printer's calibrated colour gamut.

Replaces an empty or low Violet tank

When the printer reports that the Violet channel is depleted, this cartridge restores full colour capability without flushing other inks. The jump is worth it whenever a print job shows a shift in purple, magenta or skin-tone accuracy that cleaning cycles cannot fix. It is not for users of non-GP imagePROGRAF models or for printers that take a different PFI series, because the chip and ink formulation are specific to the GP-2000 and GP-4000.

Simple front-access installation

Open the printer's ink cover, remove the spent Violet tank and insert the new one until it clicks; the printer reads the chip and updates the level automatically. What usually goes wrong is inserting the cartridge into the wrong colour slot or forgetting to remove the protective seal, which prevents ink flow and triggers an error. No tools or firmware steps are required beyond the standard on-screen confirmation.
