To troubleshoot the connection issue between your Canon printer and MacBook Pro using the CalDigit TS4 USB-A connection:

1. Connect the printer directly to the MacBook Pro (bypassing the dock) to check if it works.
2. Ensure the latest macOS updates are installed.
3. Check if the Canon printer is supported on macOS 13.3.
4. If the printer is too old and no longer supported by Canon, scanner features may not work even if printing does.
5. Try using AirPrint if the printer supports it.
6. If scanning is essential, consider replacing the printer with a newer model compatible with macOS.
