Can I install the Catalina Firmware on an OS12 M1 MacBook Air so I can use my scanner on my new computer?

Hi nnnmvg,

The CanoScan 9000F is not supported with macOS 12 (Monterey). Using Catalina's drivers and software will not function with macOS 12.

You are eligible for Canon's Upgrade Program. This is for out of warranty units which have been diagnosed to require service, or for some reason are incompatible with a new or upgraded system. This option allows you a one-time opportunity to purchase a replacement product, discounted from the list price.

You could run the old software in a virtual operating system . Just as you could run PC software on the Mac as a virtual machine. I will let you look on line to see which Virtual Software you think you would like.

The other solution is to buy an alternate scanning software. I am using a M2 mac and scanning with ViewScan. You will need the Pro version if you need to do negs.
