Printing from MacBook Air but not iPhone

My iPhoneX (15.6.1) will not wirelessly connect to my Canon MG6220 printer but my MacBook Air (Monterey 12.6) prints wirelessly no problem.

How can I get the iPhone to print?

iPhone X, iOS 15

Hi,


For some reason, the Canon MG6220 cannot be found in the latest About AirPrint - Apple Support (September 30, 2022, US), but it was listed in previous editions (such as July 01, 2022, US). An AirPrint-enabled model is compatible with iOS and macOS and can be used without the need for additional apps/drivers, provided that the printer, the iPhone, and the Mac computer are connected to the same network (Wi-Fi router).


If you are using AirPrint, and there is a problem, you could try the following full procedure (in this order):

Power off the Wi-Fi router, the printer, the iPhone, the Mac, and all other devices/computers. Wait two to three minutes. Power on the router. Wait two to three minutes. Power on the printer. Wait a minute or two. Power on the iPhone. Power on the Mac. Finally, power on all other devices/computers.
