[QUOTE="Mick_Mac, post: 1753849, member: 391392"] [b]MP600R works fine with Sierra[/b] I just purchased a 2nd hand MP600R for 10 Euros (predecessor of the MP640R) as my old one died and with all the stories going around I was concerned that it would not work as I had upgraded my MBP from Yosemite (under which the old MP600R worked fine) to Sierra 10.12.2. a while back. I configured the printer on USB first and after test printing configured it for WiFi Using the Canon IJ Network Tool which worked fine too.
