I do not have the Forma firmware version yet, it is probably the newest since it was received yesterday.
Will Calibre be able to be used with the Kobo Forma if I upgrade Calibre to version 4.3.0?
I've already answered that. But...

For calibre to use the Kobo Forma, you need at least calibre 3.33.1. Earlier versions of calibre will not see the Forma at all.

If the device has Kobo firmware 4.18.x, then you either need to upgrade to at least 4.1, or turn on the "Attempt to support newer firmware" option in the driver. It is safe to do this if you do not want to update calibre.
