Hi, hurrypls, this printer supports Apple AirPrint, USB And LAN printing.. depending on the model+ year of MacBook Pro you might need either a usb-c to usb-b cable or usb-a to usb-b cable… for AirPrint, you must have a working wifi network nearby, both MacBook Pro and printer should be on the same wifi network… you’ll have to do wireless setup on the printer itself… this link might help… https://support.usa.canon.com/kb/index?page=content&id=ART176584
