Canon MG5400 series
Canon MG5400 series TWAIN driver is a scanner control plug-in for macOS that enables image acquisition from Canon's MG5400 multifunction printer/scanner. It operates as a TWAIN data source, allowing compatible scanning applications (such as Image Capture, Adobe Photoshop, or VueScan) to communicate with the hardware and retrieve scanned documents and photographs. The driver is installed as part of Canon's printer driver package and is not used directly by users — it functions as an intermediary between scanning software and the physical device.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionThe Canon MG5400 series TWAIN driver is a component of Canon's printer driver suite, not a standalone application, so it cannot be separately updated or downloaded on its own. To determine whether a native Apple Silicon build exists for your Canon MG5400, visit Canon's official support site, enter your printer model, and download the latest macOS driver package for your Mac's architecture. If you are on an Apple Silicon Mac, look carefully for a driver explicitly labeled as supporting M-series or Apple Silicon; if you can only find an Intel-only option, contact Canon support directly to ask whether a native build is planned. Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), so if Canon has not released a native driver by then, the TWAIN driver will stop working and you will not be able to scan from that printer on a Mac running macOS 28 or later. In the meantime, you may be able to scan via Canon's web-based scanning utility (if available for your region) or through alternative scanning software that supports your hardware.
