Canon TS95021 Drivers, Faded Prints, Black Color Failure & Offline Status

The Canon TS95021 driver enables Windows and macOS systems to communicate with the printer for wireless printing, color processing, and application-level job handling. In many reported cases, the printer installs correctly and accepts jobs, yet appears offline, produces dull or incorrect colors, or fails to print from specific applications even after repeated driver reinstalls.

This page provides the latest Canon TS95021 driver download together with troubleshooting notes describing situations where the printer shows offline status, prints washed-out colors, black ink fails, or certain software (such as Photoshop) cannot produce output despite normal setup.

Problem: Printer shows offline or network error after wireless setup

What users observed: On multiple occasions, the Canon TS95021 printer reported an offline status or refused to stay connected to the wireless network. In one case, an “Offline error” persisted even after confirming the printer was reachable on the network and could print from other devices.

What was tried: Driver reinstalls and network resets were attempted, including removing the printer from the OS and re-adding it. Users also confirmed that the printer’s network settings looked correct in the router and control panel.

How this played out: The offline state remained unchanged. The print queue showed jobs as sent, but the printer status stayed offline or unresponsive until the user switched to a different connection method (e.g., USB) or kept retrying wireless setup without consistent success.

Problem: Prints come out with dull, washed-out colors

What users observed: Multiple reports described prints that looked muted or “dull” compared to expectations. Even though the print job was completed and the page was ejected, the color density was weak and lacking vibrancy, especially for mid-tone colors.

What was tried: Users experimented with different applications (e.g., trying prints from Photoshop vs other software), different driver versions, and driver reinstall attempts. Some tried color profile settings but did not report definitive changes linked to driver reinstalls.

How this played out: The dull output remained persistent across applications and driver changes for several users.

Problem: Black ink fails while other colors print

What users observed: A pattern of prints completing with all colors except black was described, or black appeared significantly lighter than the other colors. Pages that should have black text or graphics instead showed either near-white or mostly colored output without proper black density.

What was tried: Multiple print jobs were sent from different programs, and users attempted driver updates or reinstalls, but the behavior continued. Some reports specifically contrasted full-color job output against driver reinstall attempts, with no meaningful shift.

How this played out: Black output stayed absent or dull, even though the printer appeared installed correctly in the OS, and other colors printed normally. 

Problem: Printer refuses to print from Adobe Photoshop

What users observed: Attempts to print from applications such as Photoshop resulted in no output, error, or failure to complete the job, even though drivers appeared installed and other applications could print normally. The issue was seen with both wireless and wired connections.

What was tried: Users reinstalled drivers multiple times, tried different connection paths (USB vs wireless), and attempted printing from different applications. In some cases, users also verified that the printer was discoverable by the OS and appeared in device lists.

How this played out: Printing from the problem application continued to fail while other software succeeded. Driver reinstalls did not change this pattern. The behavior stayed tied to certain workflows - that is, the printer still printed from some sources but not others.

Across Canon TS95021 troubleshooting reports, the recurring pattern is that the printer remains functional and responsive, but issues persist across driver changes and instead depend on connection method, color handling behavior, or application-specific workflows. Reinstalling drivers alone rarely changes outcomes, while switching connection paths or isolating software-specific behavior more often explains how these problems play out.
