I tried connecting my Canon LBP900 and Kodak Scan Mate i940, both the hardware did not connect. Connecting non apple devices has always been an issue with Mac. I have given up on installing drivers and softwares.
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.2
Kodak left the consumer printer/scanner business in Spring 2013. Thus no Big Sur driver support from Kodak. If the LBP 900 was even a Mac printer, Canon shows no driver support for it, nor is it in the current product lineup.
You should understand that Apple is not responsible for third-party device support, or the internal business decisions by those vendors to drop product support.

Hi,
Do you mean Canon LBP2900? If so, this is a printer needing a CAPT driver (available from Canon for Windows and Linux). We have seen a number of suggested workarounds for Mac, often involving third-party downloads from various Internet sites. Some sites have URLs similar to a printer manufacturer's name. Be careful! Use the official sites of a printer manufacturer.
If absolutely necessary, you could perhaps try a virtual machine running an appropriate version of Windows on the Mac.

If you want your printer and scanner to work, you will have to go back to downloading up to date drivers and software that is compatible with your current operating system. Please keep in mind that any OS update or upgrade can have this result and then require the installation of new software. That's just how it is.
Mac doesn't allow Printer and scanner.
