Canon MP560 series
Canon MP560 series scanner driver software (ScanGear) enables Mac users to scan documents and photos using Canon PIXMA MP560 multifunction printers. This is a printer/scanner utility that allows direct control of scanning parameters, image quality settings, and document handling through the Mac operating system. It's essential software for anyone relying on their MP560 device for regular scanning workflows. The MP560 is an older all-in-one printer model from Canon's PIXMA lineup.
Suggested Replacements
1 suggestionThe Canon MP560 is a legacy device (discontinued over a decade ago), and Canon has not released a native Apple Silicon version of this printer's drivers. Canon's support for this model has ended, and the company is not actively developing new drivers for it. For continued scanning on Apple Silicon Macs, you have two practical options: (1) Check if Canon's generic TWAIN scanner support or their newer universal print drivers work with your MP560 via the system print queue — sometimes older printers are supported through generic macOS printer architecture even without dedicated drivers. (2) Consider upgrading to a current Canon PIXMA model that has native Apple Silicon driver support. If you need a temporary solution, running the existing Intel driver under Rosetta 2 may continue to work until you transition, but there is no path to native support for this hardware.
