Unable to find software for PIXMA PRO-10 other than PSP plug-in

[Robland]

I'll keep this brief. I have a 5 year old brand new Canon Pixma Pro-10, just took it out of the box and connected. It's new-new, I had to open each ink package and install in the printer for the first time.   I was able to use UBS to my Mac Studio Sonoma 14.3.1.  I was able to print an email so it's connected.

The CD Rom (inside the box) is so old it won't work with current operation system, said "won't run" also was freaked out thought was malware.

I have the Drivers and Print Studio Pro downloaded from Canon site. Driver looks to be 16.80.0.0 from the printer in my Systems Preferences.  I assume Print Studio Pro is a plug in, specifically for PS/LR, I do not have either, I use Capture One. So PSP does not open.  Have not tried to print a C1 Image.

Question:  Where is the software to manage the printer.  I assume I would be able to open a program, it would tell me my printer was happy and working normal, that I have a new firmware I could down load and all my inks were at some percentage.  I also theorized it would warn me when one ink was low and prompt me to buy more.  I also assumed I could manage the wifi setting, and it's connected with UBS and would prefer a network printer.

Is this not the case?  Is all I get is a PS plug in and the Driver number in my Systems Preferences?

From another posters image, I think I'm, looking for the software that provided this data but for my PRO-10

Hi,

Based on the Canon website for MacOS there is not a My Printer standalone app like there is for PC. You should be able to access the driver and settings from Printers and Scanners under system preferences. 

There is a network tool(Canon IJ Network Tool Ver.4.7.6 ) that can  be downloaded and installed from HERE.
