Deleting the Printer Driver

When you have to remove the printer driver, for example, when reinstallation of the printer driver is necessary, remove the driver using the following procedure.

  1. Open the [Print & Fax] (or [Print & Scan]/[Printer Setup Utility]/[Print Center]) window.

    • The [Print & Fax] or [Print & Scan] window can be opened from [System Preferences...] in Apple menu (Mac OS X 10.3/10.4/10.5/10.6/10.7/10.8).

    • The [Printer Setup Utility]/[Print Center] window can be opened from [Macintosh HD] - [Applications] - [Utilities] (Mac OS X 10.2/10.3/10.4).

  2. Select the printer you want to delete, and then click [-] (or [Delete]).

    The selected printer is deleted.

  3. Close the [Print & Fax] (or [Print & Scan]/[Printer Setup Utility]/[Print Center]) window.

  4. From [Library] - [Printers] - [PPDs] - [Contents] - [Resources] on [Macintosh HD] where the driver was installed (in Mac OS X 10.5/10.6/10.7/10.8, from [Resources] and in Mac OS X 10.2/10.3/10.4, from [Resources] - [en.lproj], [de.lproj], [es.lproj], [fr.lproj], [it.lproj], [ko.lproj], [ja.lproj], [zh_CN.lproj], and [zh_TW.lproj]), drag the following files to the [Trash] icon.
