Color Sync choice greyed out in Ventura

[Franck Lazare]

Hi, I just upgraded to Ventura on a new MacStudio. I'm printing with the latest Canon driver for my older Pixa Pro 100. When printing from Lightroom Classic, I am unable to select Color Sync, the option is greyed out, although I can select a custom profile in the Lightroom printer's menu. First print was totally off. Help!

I ended up buying Mirage which is totally foolproof. Every other solution was a total gamble. If you run a business, then ~$300 (Mirage) could be a good investment

For the first time ever, I'm having this problem too since updating to Sonoma.  This is so annoying,

Did you ever solve this? I am on sequoia now and having this same issue. I have been trouble shooting this for weeks and pretty much at my wits end.

I'm jumping back in. It's the Canon drivers. Last time it happened to me, it took three days of trial and error to fix! I ended up downloading an older driver from Canon support. And I make sure Color sync is checked first by using printer management in the print dialog box, then switching to software management for printing the color sync should stay available. Then it works. (I have a 200 now)

This bug is driving me up the wall. 
No matter what I do the printer wants to manage the colors and settings constantly reset.

Tell Apple; it's their bug!

Except i only have the problem in lightroom and photoshop. I can select "colorsync" in other apps.

So this is still not solved? aug 20th 2023? Seems to be impossible to get ColorSync activated when selecting a custom profile in Lightroom.

My experience with the Canon Pro-100 IJ drivers on MacOS Ventura has been that as soon as you touch ANYTHING in Printer Options inside the Canon driver dialogue box the profile under Color Matching changes from Color Sync to Canon Color Matching. Even checking the Color Matching in the driver window and hitting cancel. Go back in to Color Matching just after hitting cancel and the option has changed.

So long as I don't touch the driver dialogue box (like hitting the Printer Settings button in the lower left or the Printer... button in the lower right) the prints match my soft proofing in Lightroom Classic. When I manage the color in LrC the only thing I have to change in the Canon driver dialogue box is the paper type (gloss/matte) so I am using the CUPS admin page to set that. Horrible workaround, but it is working.

This is still an issue 2 years later and still no solution in sight

I am not sure who is Apple catering to anymore. This is a known issue and clearly they don't care at all. I think I am slowly getting away from Apple for good. I already use Android, sold the iPad and next to go is this Mac. Going back to the mid 2000s with Windows and tech that is not as "magical and genius", but at least works and will not drive me homeless.

I'm having the same issue with the Canon Pro-1000, I can't help but double-profiling even if my life depended on it. Everything has a magenta-cast on it (especially neutral tones and black and white photos) and macOS Sequoia isn't letting me figure this out.
