Hi,
Unfortunately, the latest MX370 series CUPS Printer Driver Ver.16.20.0.0 (Mac) from Canon appears to be for macOS 10.13 High Sierra.
https://www.usa.canon.com/support/p/pixma-mx372 (DOWNLOADS -> Software & Drivers -> Operating System Mac -> Version macOS High Sierra v10.13). You could perhaps try it anyway, but do not expect it to work with macOS 12 Monterey.
A printing system reset (link below) may be needed between tests.
If necessary, you may even want to check whether the earlier Canon Printer Drivers v3.4 for macOS package from Apple possibly could be used in this case. Look upon it as an experiment. It may not work/install at all. It is true that the system requirements indicate that macOS 12 is not compatible, but you never know. Something like the Canon MX370 series version 16.10.0.0 driver mentioned in the Printer and scanner drivers for Mac - Apple Support article?
There is an experimental Canon MX370 series Gutenprint driver as well. There is no indication that this would work with macOS 12 Monterey, though. Also the normal recommendation is to download from a printer manufacturer or from Apple. Downloading from another source would be at your own risk.
Software conflicts cannot be ruled out, so make sure that you have multiple backup copies of all important files (documents, photos, et cetera) before testing anything.
