PIXMA PRO 900 MARK II

[rgburn53]

I have been using my PIXMA PRO 9000 MARK II printer without any problems for many years.  Recently my Apple computer automatically updated to OS 10.15.3.  The printer will connect and print a Nozzle check sheet but for all regurlar printing shows and error message 'filter failed'.  I have checked to see if there are any Canon updates to allow continued use of my pro9000 but have found none.  Is there a solution?

Hi rgburn53,

The filter failed error is caused by the use of an incorrect driver.  The PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II is not supported with macOS v10.15.  The last operating system that was supported was macOS v10.13.
