At least according to the specifications at https://asia.canon/en/consumer/pixma-g3010/specification?category=&subCategory= , macOS is not supported for the G3010 model. Only Windows drivers appear to be available (https://asia.canon/en/support/0100913112).
You could possibly check whether macOS printer drivers for another G series model could be used instead. The G3000? (https://asia.canon/en/support/PIXMA%20G3000/model). This would be entirely experimental. It may not work at all. As always, make sure that you have backup copies of all important files before testing anything.
A Canon G3020 is listed as supported in About AirPrint - Apple Support. A G3010 is not listed, but AirPrint is mentioned in the above specifications for some reason (this may be an error, though). If AirPrint in fact is enabled on the G3010, additional drivers should not be needed for macOS (you could also test printing from an iPhone/iPad, as described in Use AirPrint to print from your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support).
Add a printer to your printer list so you can use it on Mac – Apple Support (UK)
