@tsd Yes, I was also waiting on a M1 mac version. Would also like a discount on the TP-LINK TL-PS110U if it works with the M1 Mac Mini.

@Kevin_Z I am not on M1 mac but this beta fix is not working for me. Archer c9 and my printer is a canon g2010 (no lan port) .Developer cannot be verified.
Pleas help

This seems the utility is not verified safe by the mac, to solve this, please go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Open Anyway to allow the operation. You may check this for more details:

@Kevin_Z Thanks! It's a big step forward for TP-Link support. I've tried it with two different Macbooks Pro (2015 and 2019) both using BigSur 11.2.3. Its working great on the 2019, but the 2015 gets stuck during boot and the only way to use the computer is to boot in safe-mode and uninstall the TP-Link driver.
Do you know any workaround or newer version to try?

Is the printer controller utility running automatically when the computer starts up? What if you disable the auto-run, will the 2015 boot up correctly? You may search online for this setting as this:

Thanks a lot.
Looks like it was installed correct.
I see my pronter in the utility, but can't add it to Big Sur printers.

What's the specific OS version of the Big Sur? Please show us more details about this "can't add it to Big Sur printers." issue, some screenshots would be helpful for the issue visualization. We will try to investigate then.

@Artcland
For ppl who have the message "developer not verified---move to trash" it could be solved by writing this command on Terminal WITHOUT PRESSING ENTER
xattr -cr
be sure there is one space after -cr and drop the app on the Terminal window
you should see something like this
xattr -cr /path/to/application.app
now press Return (Enter)
If requested type your admin password and press enter again (it seems you aren't writing anything but don't worry press enter after the password and it will work. PLEASE NOTE: if you don't use a password and the Terminal asks it, you have to set an admin password in System Preferences, reboot the pc and do this action from the beginning)
