Are Canon printers compatible with Macs?

As a general rule, Canon printers are compatible with Mac computers. Specific compatibility depends on the model of Canon printer and the operating system on the Mac.

For example, a brand-new Canon printer may not work on a Mac that is running an older version of the Mac operating system. Before purchasing a new printer, check the system requirements and compatibility information that the manufacturer lists for the product. Older printers are usually compatible with newer operating systems, and Canon.com provides a chart to determine whether a particular printer model is compatible with a particular version of the Mac operating system.
