✅ Gestetner MP1100/DSm7110 is supported. Driver: Gutenprint 5.3.5. Model id: gestetner-dsm7110

Install the Gestetner MP1100/DSm7110 driver

  1. Plug the printer into the Mac with a USB cable and switch it on.
  2. Download the installer (.pkg) and open it. Click through, enter your Mac password. It is signed and notarized by Apple, so there are no security warnings.

Wi-Fi, network, or not detected over USB

After installing, open Terminal (⌘+Space, type Terminal), paste this and press Enter:

sudo gutenprint-add gestetner-dsm7110

For a network printer, add a name and the printer's address (lpinfo -v lists what macOS can see):

sudo gutenprint-add gestetner-dsm7110 MyPrinter socket://192.168.1.50

Or without Terminal: System Settings → Printers & Scanners → Add → Use: Select Software… and pick “Gestetner MP1100/DSm7110” ending in “Apple Silicon”.

Why did my Gestetner MP1100/DSm7110 stop working?

Gestetner's own Mac driver for this printer was built for Intel Macs only. On Apple Silicon it ran through Rosetta until macOS 27, which no longer allows that, so System Settings now says “The printer software is not compatible with this device”. This package replaces it with Gutenprint 5.3.5, compiled natively for Apple Silicon.

Print quality and black & white: in the print dialog open Printer Features (Printer Options on macOS 27). Quality is under Resolution; for black & white set Color Model to Grayscale. Ink and toner levels can't be shown by open source drivers.
