1 suggestionWe could not find recent information about whether Canon has released a native Apple Silicon build of this CMFP Printer Utility. Given that you are still running this app and it appears to be a relatively specialized printer-management tool, your first step should be to visit Canon's official support website and check for driver and utility downloads specific to your printer model and macOS version. Look for any mention of Apple Silicon, Universal Binary, or native ARM64 support in the download description or release notes. If Canon has already shipped a native build, download and install that version. If no native build is listed on Canon's site, contact Canon support directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon version is planned — the deadline is important because Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), after which an Intel-only utility will not launch. In the meantime, the utility continues to run under Rosetta, so there is no immediate urgency, but you should confirm Canon's roadmap within the next year.
