The only thing I found with switching to US English is that it changes the date format, Siri voice and temperature units to american settings so I had to set them back. Otherwise I haven't noticed anything much different except that AI works.

Not sure if you ever bothered with the Sequoia upgrade Adrian, but the dot one of the dot one is now released, aka Sequoia 15.1.1

Sequoia seems to have borked my Canon PIXMA printer, confirmed by Canon support that it is eol.
Will try with 15.1.1 before ditching and replacing.

Yes, I have, I put in this post, but easy to miss it.
Got a couple of issues, fusion on Davinci resolve seems to be on the slow side. Even updated Da Vinci, but still no difference. I am thinking of rolling back, but I will try this updated version and see if that helps.

That is the problem when you have older printers, if it works fine, then you don't really want to get rid of it.
it was like my scanner when I moved to Mac, thankfully I found something called Vuescan that allowed me to use my old scanner, it may be old, but it works fine and better than a lot of newer scanners.

I tried to get a Lexmark printer going for someone on Windows 10 a few months ago, it worked fine until Windows 10 did an update and that was the end of it. Printers are pretty cheap these days if all you want is something basic, a waste I know, but that is the way things are.

Make sure that you have a good (tested) backup using software other than Time Machine if you want to roll back. Carbon Copy is good software for this.

I've never used it to do a rollback, but what's the problem with Time Machine?

The problem is that if it is a current backup it will restore back to the current OS. It's OK to use a backup that was taken before the upgrade, but that will lose any data changes made after that date. It would be possible to select individual files to restore, but it can be quite complicated to do that and retain the correct configuration.

Also, it's difficult to test a Time Machine backup without doing a full restore. A Carbon Copy backup can make a bootable drive; so you can test it by booting off it.

I use Time Machine via a network drive, so a full restore from it would be a lengthy business. A Carbon Copy (or similar cloning software) backup to an external drive is pretty quick and, as I said, immediately testable.

Have you checked if your printer is listed here as supported: https://www.printfab.net/printers_Canon.html ? It might be worth downloading the trial version to see if it can help.

Thanks… it is on the list…

Will try and revert!


[Edit] Uiii PrintFab is €49.50... definitely am trying 15.1.1 first!! Also only states up to OS 14.x 😕

[Edit v.2] 15.1.1 still not allowing most recent Canon PIXMA driver software!
