Canon Quick Menu
Canon Quick Menu is a utility bundled with Canon inkjet and multifunction printers that provides quick access to scanning, printing, and device management features from the Mac menu bar. It lets users initiate scans to various destinations (email, cloud storage, applications), access printer status and settings, and launch Canon's larger software suite without opening the full application menus. It is typically installed automatically as part of Canon's printer driver package and is common on Macs connected to Canon printers.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionCanon Quick Menu is a utility component bundled with Canon printer drivers rather than a standalone application. There is no direct update path for the Quick Menu itself — it is updated whenever you reinstall or update Canon's complete printer driver package from Canon's support website. To determine whether a native Apple Silicon build exists, visit the Canon support site, find your printer model, and download the latest printer driver package for macOS. If the package indicates native Apple Silicon support, the bundled Quick Menu will also run natively. If the current driver package for your specific printer model is still Intel-only, contact Canon's support to ask whether a native build is planned. Given that Apple will remove Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), it is important to confirm your printer driver has a native Apple Silicon version before then — after that date, Intel-only printer utilities will no longer launch on newer Macs.
