Unable to edit printer settings toolbar on my MacBook Pro M4

I have a MacBook Pro M4 running Sequoia 15.2. I need to add a printer using the Advanced Settings tab in the Printers & Scanners preferences. However, I can't access Advanced Settings because I can't add it to the toolbar. I go to Printer & scanners > Add printer, scanner or fax > right click to get "Customize Toolbar". When I try to drag Advanced Settings down to the toolbar, it doesn't stick. I've tried the same process in Safe Mode and that didn't work either.


Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can fix it?

See if there is anything here—


Add a printer to your printer list so you can use it on Mac



The current stable release of Sequoia including bug fixes, security updates is macOS 15.4
