I have installed Big Sur. Now I cannot use or download our Canon printer driver......
Hello again,
Yes, the Canon (PIXMA) MG5350 is mentioned in the article About AirPrint - Apple Support as a printer supporting the driverless AirPrint technology. This means that the printer is compatible with macOS (Big Sur).
Regarding the firmware, please have a look at https://www.canon.co.uk/support/consumer_products/products/fax__multifunctionals/inkjet/pixma_mg_series/pixma_mg5350.html?type=firmware . There is an AirPrint Firmware Updater (Mac) for MG5300 series Ver.1.2b (19 September 2017). Unless already installed, please note the updating details.
Also see the Manual for how to use AirPrint for Mac.
It may not be a bad idea to reset the printing system (steps in the following article) before you add the printer.

Information about how to add the printer can be found here:
Add a printer on Mac - Apple Support
It should not be too difficult to make this work. Do you have an existing Wi-Fi network with a router? If so, make sure that the printer and the Mac computer are connected to the same network. Do not hesitate to post back in case of additional questions.
Good luck!
I have just printed via Canon Print services on my Galaxy phone S10 but can't see a way to print test page from printer. It has to be requested from Mac.
I have tried this, but the printer is still not working. I am using Canon MF240, and just upgraded to Big Sur. Any ideas? Thanks!

ImageClass MF241d. Thank you!
Oh- never mind, you are correct! The site I used only had the printer driver, so am now downloading the scanner driver from the site you provided. Thanks so much!
Good news!
Thank you very much! This one saved my day.
I am up and running again with this latest Big Sur update, so all is well thank goodness.
