We are super excited to announce the next round of innovations with Parallels Desktop 19 for Mac.
We know how important it is to stay up and running after continuous software upgrades. This is why compatibility with macOS has always been and continues to be a primary focus.
In macOS Sonoma 14, the software module CGPSConverter that converts PostScript files was
removed from macOS. As a result, the Shared Printing feature became useless, as it was using this module to allow printing from Windows via printers shared from Mac.
Printing from Windows is essential for many Parallels Desktop users. As a response, our engineers re-engineered the Shared Printing feature to use Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) which is the most popular printing method nowadays. The IPP printing holds the potential for exposing more printer-specific features to Windows that our engineers are currently exploring.
There are also improvements to running macOS Sonoma in a virtual machine, which we cover in a separate topic below.
