Hello, may I know the model number of your TP-Link device? Have you tried the latest USB Printer Controller on the official website? Can you install it on the MacOS Big Sur?

Hello, thanks for getting back, if that is the case, I'm afraid the current version doesn't support MacOS Big Sur.

Hello, thanks for bringing this up.

 

Are you both requiring the printer controller utility to work on the latest macOS Big Sur? We are sorry that we don't have the latest version for that now, we have reported this issue to the developers and once we have any update, we will release it on the official website, thanks.

Hello,

Yes I've tried installing the latest version of USB Printer Controller but unfortunately it did not work.

 

I hope you solve this issue for Mac Big Sur Version 11.0.1 (20B29).

 

Regards,

 

Fakhri

Hello, thanks for getting back.

 

Sorry that we currently don't have the latest printer controller utility for the latest Mac Big Sur Version 11.0.1, as we understand that this is a big change on the macOS, so printer controller is not compatible with it now.

 

While we cannot guarantee you we will release new printer controller utility for Mac Big Sur Version 11.0.1, as this functions is not available on most of our routers, it is suggested to connect your printer to the router with Ethernet cable or via Wi-Fi.

 

Thanks for your understanding.
