Hi'
The printdialog menu on my 27" Imac and my 17" PROMac is different to the printdialog shown in the manual for my Canon printer TS8051. The function "Color Options" is missing on my computer running OS 10.13.6. Great problem, that I not is able to work with the color options on my new printer.
Kindly

If you've not already done so, download and install the Canon driver package, remove and re-add the printer using > System Preferences > Printers & Scanners, and see if the printer now does what you expect.
There are a lot of sketchy-looking probably-not-Canon printer driver sites around, too.

Thank's. I have deleted all Canon stuff, and several times done a clean installation of the driver. But, it did not solve my problem. I have contacted Canon Support, but they claim that it is an Apple problem. Well, so much for the Canon Support.
One more thing to try; see if it's the AirPrint drivers getting in the way.
Short: When adding the printer, select the "Use:" entry that appears in the add-printer dialog, and choose "Select Software" to manually select the driver software to use, find the vendor software for the specific printer from the list, and select it.
If not, then Canon is in the best position to sort this, within their own drivers, and then—if there's a macOS bug lurking here—in coordination with Apple.
OK, doing it all over again, download, installing and restart, heuruka, the sun shines...
And if you click on Paper handling there's no Color or other options?
Ever printer is diff, butb on mine it's under printer Features for one...
Remove the device, reboot the Mac, and re-add the printer.
Make sure the printer driver download is from Canon. There are sketchy-looking printer driver sites, some sporting Canon logos.
No Color Options anywhere.
Have done, but no. Yes, the Driver is from Canon.
Thanks, I really appriciate your advice, but it did not help. It seems that there is a bug here. Canon will not help me, and Apple do not care. So much for service.
