MacOS Catalina Support Statement. Last Update: 16 June, 2020. Most Brother models offer support for macOS Catalina (macOS v10.15.x). The charts below indicate that models offer support for macOS v10.15.x including drivers and utilities available for download.
- To see if your product is compatible with Mac OS X. Catalina v10.15. High Speed Document Scanner Series.
- Dec 16, 2019 I just updated to Catalina 10.15.2 and my Pixma MX452 scan utility software will no longer work. I checked for a new driver, but nothing is listed. The Canon site said this model is compatible with Catalina, but I don't know how to update it.
Since the release of the new Mac OS Catalina Beta in June, Neat has been testing its current products and drivers with Catalina to identify and promptly resolve any potential issues caused by the new environment.
As of 10/11/2019, Neat is happy to say that there are currently no compatibility issues with current Neat products in the new Catalina OS. However, we have received some reports that even though there is no issue with scanning, some users still get an error message during scanning stating 'Failed to open a session on the device'.
Catalina Compatible Scanners
This error is from your MacOS, not from Neat. It does not prevent you from scanning.
We highly recommend that you do not upgrade to Catalina if you are using a retired Neat product. Retired Neat products are not compatible with Catalina and will cause the retired application to stop working completely.
