AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find current information about the Canon MG5200 ScanGear's native Apple Silicon support. This is a hardware driver utility from Canon, and driver and printer software support can vary widely — some vendors ship native builds quickly, while others take longer or discontinue support for older hardware lines. Since the MG5200 series is now several years old, Canon may have moved focus to newer printer models. Contact Canon support directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon version of ScanGear for the MG5200 exists, or whether Canon recommends upgrading to a newer printer model for continued macOS support. If you rely on this printer, verify compatibility before macOS 28 ships in September 2028, since the Intel-only build will stop working on that release. Alternatively, check whether your Mac's built-in printer drivers and AirPrint support cover your scanning and printing needs without the vendor utility.
