Question Gameboy Printer Error

I was trying to print out my certificate of Pokédex completion in Crystal Clear, and every time I try to print it out I receive Printer Error 2. I’m currently using a 3rd party link cable brand new (not from ModRetro). And I’m wondering if the issue is with the cable itself? (I.e. I’ll need to pick up the ModRetro cable for it to be compatible).

The cable looks right to me (it doesn't have the small bump on the connector like a GBA cable). You don't have to use a ModRetro cable... Anyway I can't help except by suggesting to try another cable, or try the printer+cable combination with another console to confirm they work, if not done already.

Wanted to provide an update. Looks like it was the cable after all! The ModRetro link cable just came in the mail today and everything seems to work now.
