There is no connection to the printer, Canon ImageClass D570. The PPD file is missing and the database doesn't mention this type of printer, Canon ImageClass D570. Canon had 2 linux compressed files and I extracted them, but there wasn't a PPD file. Is there any other options?

The printer driver name is Canon D570 UFRII LT (en), it would appear after installation of Canon UFR-II LT driver.
There's a version for Linux ARM, which is suitable for Raspberry Pi (ARM64/cnrdrvcups-ufr2-us_6.20-1.01_arm64.deb inside the archive).
You don't need to manually select a PPD file, but if you want, it will be under /usr/share/cups/model/CNRCUPSD570ZK.ppd after the driver installation.

I used your advice and downloaded the linux canon file. I asked AI and used Terminal, but install said command not found. So, I checked the App Store for printer apps and found one that showed the printer job. I tried printing and it said the printer job had been completed. I installed a printer configuration app and it said i was using a driverless driver. I decided to give up. I switched the OS back to Raspberry Pi and installed an email app so I can print receipts. I printed a test page and it worked. I wish I could use Ubuntu because PI takes 5 to 10 minutes. Also, I tried root userKevin Thomas– Kevin Thomas2025-09-20 01:37:43 +00:00Commented Sep 20 at 1:37

Your printer supports AirPrint/Mopria, you can use
driverlessoreverywheredrivers. In this case you do NOT need to install (add) the printer manually, it will be discovered automatically and you should use this auto-discovered printer. Make sure your printer is on the latest firmware — driverless implementation is frequently buggy in the printers. Or install the official driver and use it, you can install it withsudo apt install cnrdrvcups-ufr2-us_6.20-1.01_arm64.deb, unpack the .deb file from the archive first.ValdikSS– ValdikSS2025-09-20 04:27:38 +00:00Commented Sep 20 at 4:27 -
i tried to find AirPrint/Mopria in the APPstore but it was not there so Looked at my printer app that I installed and noticed my printer was not added, possibly not added. I am not sure, what I am looking at, to tell you the truth; Anyways, I added it and tried to print a test page and it worked. However, the THUNDERBIRD mail app, still, did not work!!!! I looked at the DESTINATION option and there was my Canon_D570_USB and CND570 printer. I switched it to the CND570 printer, and it, now, works.
