Photoshop - Canon Professional Print and Layout not working

Hi Neil,

Thank you for raising this. I was able to get Canon Professional Print & Layout working with Photoshop 2026 (v27) by manually placing the Canon plug-ins into the Photoshop Plug-ins folder.

Here’s what worked:

• Copy the two Canon plug-ins from:

Applications > Canon Utilities > Professional Print & Layout > Install Files > PSPlugin

• Paste them into:

Applications > Adobe Photoshop 2026 > Plug-ins

• Restart Photoshop

After the restart, the Canon plug-in appeared correctly in the menu.

If the plug-ins still do not load (macOS security can block them), try this:

• Close Photoshop

• Open Terminal

Run the following command for the first plug-in:

“sudo xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Adobe\ Photoshop\ 2026/Plug-ins/CNPPLPI01.plugin”

The terminal will prompt you to enter your Mac User password. Then, copy & paste for the second plug-in and enter password again:

“sudo xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Adobe\ Photoshop\ 2026/Plug-ins/CNPPLPI02.plugin”

This removes the macOS quarantine flag and allows Photoshop to load the plug-ins properly.

After running both commands, relaunch Photoshop and check again.

Hope this helps!

Regards,
