Apple keeps removing third-party printer drivers with every macOS release, breaking support for thousands of printers. PrintCast Driver brings them back with a single, universal replacement.
PrintCast Driver replaces the vendor-specific drivers Apple removed so your printer keeps working on modern macOS.
Lists the printers set up on your Mac and the ones it finds on your network or over USB, and shows which ones it can drive.
One click to get your printer printing again. No hunting for downloads on vendor websites.
Preserves core capabilities like duplex and color where your printer reports them. Some advanced features of the original vendor driver may not be available.
Runs as a background service at login. Your printer stays ready without any manual steps.
Lives in your menu bar with quick status. See which printers are active at a glance.
Print jobs never leave your network. No cloud relay, no remote processing.
Download from printcast.app. The driver runs from your menu bar.
PrintCast lists the printers set up on your Mac and the ones it finds, marks those that already work with macOS, and offers an "Install" button for the ones it can drive.
Your printers reappear in the print dialog with the options they report.
One-time purchase. No subscription.

Model coverage varies. “Supported” means these printer lines use the page description languages PrintCast Driver targets, PCL5 and PostScript: most laser printers, and business inkjets whose models speak them; individual models may differ, and print quality or available features may not match the original vendor driver.
