  • How to uninstall a printer driver?

    In the office where I work with my Mac there's a Canon copier/scanner model iR2318. Months ago I downloaded and installed the Lion compatible drivers required that worked fine.
    Yesterday (with no reason, no changes, nothing at all: just working) the printer started to refuse to print as it asked for a different paper format: A4 or Letter. Despite many attempts to specifically send print jobs in A4, which is the paper format loaded in the tray, the printer continued to refuse all prints.
    Today I ended up removing the printer from the list, as it became unnecessary, and I also liked to uninstall the printer driver as well, since Canon released a newer version.
    Currently, when trying to reinstall the printer, 2 drivers are displayed: UK and US. This lets me assume that those 2 drivers are still installed in my system: I wanted to remove both of them and start from scratch by reinstall the driver and he printer as the system was new.
    How can I remove the driver, so that Lion won't recognize it and that I could make a clean install of the previous working printer?
    Please…as a former Windows user, the most unwanted answer is "try to recover your system"!

    Once deleted those files, when installing a new printer, the list of available drivers still shows the deleted ones. Are they truly available or is the list that has not been updated? And, yes: I restarted my system after deleting the driver folder.

  • How to uninstall defunct printer

    I used to have a 1200 series printer which has been replaced by a 1050A. The 1200 still appears on the Devices and Printers screen. I can right click delete it and it disappears only to reappear when I bring up the Devices and Printers screen again. Recently it somehow became the default printer! How can I remove this permanantly? I am Windows 7.
    This question was solved.

    Hi TonyWiseOwl,
    I understand you are unable to remove the old printer, more specifically, you can remove it but it reappears!
    I suggest you remove the driver from the Printer Server Properties and see if that does the trick.
     In the ‘Devices and Printers’ folder
    2. Choose ‘Print server properties’.
    Win XP – With no printer selected, click ‘File’ then ‘Server Properties’.
    Windows Vista – With no printer selected, press ‘Alt’ then click ‘File’ then ‘Server Properties’.
    Windows 7/8 and 8.1 – Select any printer in the ‘Devices and Printers’ folder and click ‘Print Server properties’ above.
    3. Click on the ‘Drivers’ tab at the top of ‘Print server properties’ window
    4. Choose the printer you want to uninstall and click ‘Remove’
    5. Choose 'Remove driver only'
    6. The next screen will give a warning, letting you know that deleting the driver package will remove it from the system. Click ‘Yes’ to say that you are sure you want to do this.
    If documents are stuck in the print spooler, you may see an error, cancel any documents pending in the print queue, or try restarting the print spooler, then try to remove the driver from ‘Print server properties’ again. If it still won’t remove the package, restarting the computer and the printer should resolve this ‘in use’ error and allow the driver to be removed.
    Once the driver is removed you can remove the printer again from the Device and Printers, then restart the computer. Check the Device and Printer and see if this has resolved the issue.
    Please let me know how this works out, thanks.

    I have a Toshiba; running Windows 8:
    My laptop wasn't recognizing my HP Photosmart C309g Scanner for some reason. Although I could print, I need the scanner, so I decided to uninstall/reinstall everything. 
    Perhaps I uninstalled the wrong feature first, but whatever happened, my laptop had a hiccup & windows wouldn't load.  I used the onboard problem solving feature and windows did reload. 
    I returned to my efforts to reinstall the printer drivers (using the CD), but when the Setup window appears,  the Install option doesn't appear.  I only have the option to Exit the software setup window. 
    Does this mean there are still remnants of the previous installation?  In the Programs and Features list, there are remants (HP Cust Part Program; HP Imaging Device Functions; and HP Solution Ctr, all of which were installed at the same time as the printer driver.   Nothing happens when I right click to uninstall or double click on it to uninstall. 
    Any suggestions?  Thank you!

  • HP Laserjet P2014 - How to uninstall it?

    Hi everybody.
    This printer is shared in a local network. When a printer job is sent to the printer server, it is queued twice by win7 workstations. Host based driver was the originally installed but show this issue. I tried to install PCL5 driver but installation stalls. When I tried to uninstall the driver, I found out that files remain in computer. How can I fully uninstall this printer?
    Thank you.
    Marco.
    Freedom is not a permission for chaos.

    The LJ 1015 does not use a toner cartridge that has a memory tag and therefore there is not a cartridge page count.  However, there is a page count for the printer itself which can be accessed thru either holding the button down on the printer for 5 seconds or printing the configuration page through the toolbox application.

    Hi @Shabir_Bhat ,
    I see by your post that you are unable to uninstall the printer software, you are getting a message that there are still print jobs in the queue. I will certainly do my best to help you.
    Clear Printer Spooler Files and Enable the Spooler Service.
    In desktop mode, press the Windows key and R at the same time, to show the run command line.
    1. Type "Services.msc" (without the quotation marks).
    2. Double-click "Printer Spooler" in the Services list.
    3. Click Stop and click OK.
    4. Navigate to "%WINDIR%\system32\spool\printers", right click on the document and left click to delete the job.
    5. Run "Services.msc" (without the quotation marks).
    6. Double-click "Printer Spooler" in the Services list.
    7. Click on Start. In the Startup Type list, make sure that "Automatic" is selected and click OK.
    If there was any jobs stuck in the queue, after doing these steps, go back in the Print Queue and try deleting them again.
    Go to the Startup screen, (tiles menu) type in "Devices and Printers", select settings, click on Devices and Printers.
    Right-click or tap and hold the name of the printer, and then click or tap See what's printing.
    Click or tap Printer, and then click or tap Cancel All Documents.
    Click or tap Yes to confirm the action.
    If documents remain in the print queue, restart the computer.
    If you are still having issues, download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!

  • How do I reinstall "Printed Documentation"?

    When I try to print documentation in RoboHelp HTML 6, I get
    the message "The Word VBA macro version registered is incorrect.
    Please reinstall Printed Documentation."
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling RoboHelp, and that
    doesn't fix the problem. Just a short while ago I uninstalled and
    reinstalled Word 2000, then updated it because RoboHelp said that a
    Word 2000 update was necessary to correct some problem.
    So, how do I reinstall "Printed Documentation" so I can
    generate printed documentation?

    See Printed documentation error messages in the Print Issues
    topic on my site. It may just be necessary to reduce your security
    settings.
    If you have installed Word AFTER RoboHelp, that may also
    affect things. RoboHelp likes to be installed after Word.

    How to uninstall Final Cut Pro & the other ProApps -
    There are two ways to do this. The first requires that you insert the install discs for each app and go through the following procedure to identify the installed files.
    1) Insert the disc and double click the install icon.
    2) Click to let the installer check your system
    3) After the installer opens, click File > Show Files (Command-T)
    4) Click the disclosure triangle next the the app's name to show all the files installed, then select all of them
    5) Choose Edit > Copy (Command-C)
    6) Open a text editor & paste the list
    7) If you have a printer connected, print
    8) Make sure you delete the file/folder in the exact location indicated in the list
    9) Insert the next app's install disc and repeat
    The other way involves the Terminal.
    Using Terminal:
    1) In Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder (Shift-Command-G)
    2) Enter the location /Library/Receipts/FinalCurPro.pkg/Contents
    3) Click Go to open the Contents folder
    4) Launch Terminal (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal)
    5) Enter the command lsbom -s (a lower case L, not an upper case i)
    lsbom lists each of the files inside the bill of materials. To list only the folders, the command would be lsbom -d.
    6) Type a space, then drag the Archive.bom file from the Finder window to the Terminal window.

    9) Open a text editor and paste the list into it. Print if you have a printer attached.

  • How to Uninstall Leopard Upgrade and go back to Tiger

    I would like to go back to Tiger and was wondering how to uninstall the Leopard upgrade without having to do a full reformat. Is this possible? Thanks in advance!

    First, welcome to the Apple boards.
    Backup what you have because it probably contains things from the original update you want to keep - network settings, passwords, etc. A bootable clone is your best bet - and test it out.
    Then you need to format your HD (full, not quick) with the Leopard DVD and then reboot with the Tiger CD and install it. I am not sure how much you can migrate "downwards" from the Leopard backup, but some things will probably come along OK. Not sure about mail since it was converted by Leopard - will it unconvert? Don't know.
    I have read of some who tried to simply install Tiger over Leopard but the results were less than great. You can try it once you have that clone backup, because you won't be losing anything.
    I would suggest unplugging the clone during the erase and install process until you get to the migration point.

    I have a brand new Leopard based MacBook Pro that I need to revert to its previous cat form of Tiger. Would you mind walking me through it? I have Tiger disks that came with another MacBook Pro so those should have all of the machine specific items I will need. As I understand this, I start the computer from the included Leopard disk and do a full format. (I noticed that there is a new partition style named GUID Partition, is this Leopard only?) Next, I load in my Tiger disks and install from those? I do not need to do any system backups as I have no information on this computer as of yet. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks, Brian
