My iMac running macOS Sequoia cannot print to my Canon MG5350

Hello


I now own this old Apple iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2019)

I have installed macOS Sequoia 15.7.5

I can no longer print with my ancient Canon MG5350


However, I CAN print from my M1 MacBook Air running macOS Tahoe. I can also print from an iMac running macOS Ventura or from my iPhone and iPad.


Is there a known bug with macOS Sequoia which is preventing the use of my printer?

There are no Sequoia drivers for this printer. Canon's site says "Unfortunately your device is no longer supported under the selected operating system."


However, according to Canon's specifications, and Apple's site, this printer supports Apple AirPrint. With printers that support AirPrint, you don't need separate drivers to use printing functions.

Thank you for pointing me in that direction "den.thed".

I am pleased to report that all is now well and I confirm that I can now print from this iMac too! 😄

You're welcome. That is good news.

Is there any other reason why I should not continue using Sequoia instead of an earlier operating system?
I have 24 GB 2400 MHz DDR4 memory. All appears to be working now.

IMHO, Sequoia runs better than Ventura or Sonoma and there is no value in dropping back to Monterey.


FWIW we have a 2018 Mac mini w/20GB of RAM and it has no issues running Sequoia.

Yes there are several reasons to stay with macOS 15 Sequoia


Come this Fall 2026, macOS 14 Sonoma will probably cease to get and updates and Patches


Come this Fall 2026, macOS 15 Sequoia should still get Updates and Patches for about another year or possible 2


Apple works on issueing update and Patches for the 3 Latest Versions of macOS


The others, drop off


Put into the mix that Downgrading is Not for the faint of heart


To do so would required Removing all vestiges of the Existing macOS 15 Sequioa


Then to Install via various means. the Older Version from " Scratch "

I can't think of any good reason to go back.


FYI, the current versions of Pages, Numbers, Keynote, GarageBand, and iMovie require macOS 15.6 (Sequoia) or later. Some of the features in Pages, Numbers, and Keynote now require an Apple Creator Studio subscription – but I believe that the basic features are still free.


If you have not already downloaded these applications – and think you might want to use any of them some day, now would be the time to grab them before Apple gets the idea to further raise the requirement to Tahoe.


Likewise, most current Magic Keyboards and Magic Mice require Sequoia. You'd think that keyboards and mice would be very broadly compatible, but Apple has a bad habit of raising the requirements for these devices every time they release new ones.
