Is Canon Pixma G1010 with BigSur?

I was stupid not to read compatibility of G1010 with macOS and now I'm stuck between giving the printer away or looking for a solution.


Is there any possible way I can ever use Pixma G1010 on BigSur? I have read of printer sharing, is there any other way? I have seen "dummy" G1010 drivers in the internet only to find it is for G1000 series after installation and it is getting a bit frustrating.


Please help! Thanks in advance!


MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.2

Canon Asias does not even offer any drivers except for WIndows for the G1010. Canon North America (USA) is not finding the PIXMA G1010 model at all. Time to give it away, and find something that is supported in Apple's built-in networked AirPrint functionality. AirPrint support means you will no longer be dependent on the printer vendor for driver support.
