Apple seems to have been including Canon printer drivers scanner support through macOS10.14.6 Mojave. Will macOS10.15 Catalina continue support Canon printer/scanners with the 32-bit print drivers? If not, does anyone know a work around? My printer is a Canon Pixma TS6220 and was purchased less than 6 months ago.

There's a difference between drivers and other peripheral software. Drivers for printers are written by Apple, have been for a very long time. Apple's specification has made it so compatible printers are made to talk with Macs directly without the need of external drivers.
The specific Canon software like the scanner software or image editing application it may come with are not made by Apple. Its up to Canon to update those.
The printer will still work on Catalina normally , but the included Canon 32 bit software will not.
You can use Apple's own Image Capture or Preview to scan documents if the Canon software is not updated.
anyone find a solution for this problem we have with all brand I think.I don’t want I know image capture page per page is not gold for me?
I have the same problem with a PIXMA E471. The error returned by the scanner is the same. Do you find a solution?
That's great - now if someone knows where to find the IJ App for the Maxify MB2750, I would love to know. I couldn't locate it on the printerdrives.com site.
when I choose the ipf8400 its the same as in Europe: "There is no driver for the OS Version you selected. The driver may be included in your OS or you may not need a driver."
iPF605 no driver still
Hi firstsenior - can you give me some more details about how you reinstalled by USB - was that connecting your mac to the printer via USB, or by putting the Canon drivers on a USB?
Ok, thanks firstsenior - I'll give it try.
Will a Canon Selphy 1300 work with Catalina OS?
This solved my problem for MG6250 too.
I sincerely hope that people with Canon printers with scanners and other Canon software still using 32-bit applications call them today to complain about their lack of action. They were aware that Apple was making these changes and they should have updated to 64-bit applications prior to Apple's release of Catalina. Canon support 1-800-652-2666 8am -8pm ET
Canon UK says officially that the MG5200 series is not compatible with Mojave or Catalina (and here are our new printers which are...). However, since my printer worked with Mojave (ex-duplex printing, which I still haven't figured out) I upgraded to Catalina - and it still works - and scans - though it does give a warning message - just persevere.
Catalina only supports 64bit now. Nothing that is 32 will run on Catalina. And a quick look at Cannon site, appears to show they do not have a 64bit driver. Had the same problem with Brother drivers. But Brother has now put out a 64bit for Mac as they have had for PC for some time now. Although I had no access to Brother software because it was 32bit I could still print using Mac generic drivers. Just had no control centre. But could still print. You will have to contact Canon support to see when they will release a 64bit driver package for Mac.
I just updated a Mac with Catalina and updated the drivers for Canon MX925. Just visit the driver support site of Canon and download the latest drivers (for Mojave). Even the IJ Scan Utility (v19.1.0h) is updated and works fine with Catalina.
Best, Michael
From Canon support:
"Currently, there are no updated drivers and software for CanoScan LiDE 220 for macOS 10.15 Catalina. However, you may try downloading and installing the driver for MAC 10.14 (Mojave) although there's no guarantee that this programme will work as it is only designed for MAC 10.14 and earlier.

On the other hand, new versions of the drivers and software for cameras, printers and scanners will be rolled out soon although we do not have an ETA for this. I'd recommend visiting the product download site from time to time to see if updates are uploaded and released
Spend some Time but now it works. Got to run My Canon ip4200 Printer under Catalina.
The Canon ip4200 is realy old but i love this Printer.
If sombody needs the driver... probably all the ip series should work in this way.
