AirPrint not working after iOS 18.0.1 update

After updating my iPhone 14 Pro from iOS 17.x.x to iOS 18.0.1 the AirPrint apps is not working with my Canon i-Sensys MF217w still reported to be supported by the new iOS version.


This printer works correctly if I print:

  • from my MACBook with MacOS Monterey 12.7.6
  • from another iPhone 11 running iOS 17


After trying to print a simple Note (with title "Modèle" for example containing a "grid"), I cannot see the AirPrint list and the printing never comes out or suddenly a new error message appears suggesting Retry or Open printing list . If I select "Open printing list" (see screen capture) in spite of observing my page in the printing list, printing never occurs.


Il have also tried to reboot:

  • my router
  • my printer
  • my iPhone 14 Pro



More details: ( the firmware of my Canon printer says : Main controller Ver 04.15 ; Boot Rom Ver 04.01; DCON Ver 00.09

I have no possibility to update this firmware because Canon does not provide a firmware update for MacOS Monterey 12.7.6 64 bits). And remember that everything worked fine with iOS 17 and from other devices not running iOS18.


Do you expect a new Update of iOS 18 to solve this problem or is this specific to my hardware configuration, not so obsolete after all ?

I hear from Reddit and also Apple community that other users experienced a similar problem.



iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 18
