canon ipf8300 8300 printer not working after firmwareupdate

Is there any way I could get my ipf8300 8300 printer to work with mac again? I only get "filter failed" after updating firmware and driver seems not supported to catalina. Canon says no. The printer is 10 years its only to through away. That is such a waste since the printer is working. Nozzle check is ok. But communication is not working. Should never had updated firmware. Please help on what to do. I have tried also windows machine ang a mini mac with big sur and the other newer os. Not connection. Its a 6000$ machine, not much used, and just to put in recycling? To bad.
