Apple M1 Printer Driver My Canon Now Works! Driver for 1300 different printers....

Dinner washed out with rain!! Typical Melbourne, hot then rain!! ;0)

Did you get the thing to work? :0)

Personally I would wait, seriously, until April 21 to buy a new printer and before purchase to make sure M1 chip is supported!

Glad to hear you have a backup PC! All the best.

Excellent! :0)

Let's modify the printer using CUPS on the webpage instead of Printers & Scanners.

Hoping it's not too technical.

Enter the localhost in Safari, up the top click Administration. Under Printers click Manage Printers.

Under Queue Name will be a list of all current attached printers. Select the printer giving you issues.

Under the Administration tab, select "Modify Printer".

Make SURE the "USB" is highlighted only. Click continue.

Next screen:

The only tab I changed here when I did it was the location to state Mac mini. Click continue.

Next screen:

Make sue you select the driver that states BOTH "Canon .... & Gutenprint ..." NOT Gutenprint on it's own - make sense?

Click continue:

NOTE: The refresh takes about 6 - 10 seconds, don't navigate away! You should have the printer and the following wording "(Idle, Accepting Jobs, Not Shared)"...

Hi,

I own a Canon IP 4950 USB only printer.

The printer has direct CD - DVD print capability using a tray.

Everything now functions correctly - I do not print photos though.

Missed your last ?

I use Swift Publisher app by Belight software for disc printing....

Hello,

Before you replace the printer...

Maybe I can help - what’s the error message you are receiving in the Printer Queue box when trying to print a page?
