We could not find current information about whether Canon has released a native Apple Silicon build of the MG6100 series Network scanner driver. The MG6100 is an older inkjet model (released around 2011), and while Canon's modern printers increasingly ship native drivers, legacy hardware support can be inconsistent. Contact Canon support directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon driver is available or planned for your MG6100 before macOS 28 ships in September 2028 — an Intel-only driver will stop launching on that release. As an alternative, check whether your MG6100 supports AirPrint (most Canon printers from 2010 onwards do); if it does, you can scan and print via the system's built-in AirPrint drivers, which are native on all modern Macs and require no vendor software at all. Canon's support page for the MG6100 will list which scanning and printing methods are supported.
