If items are waiting to print when you try to remove a printer, Windows will wait until printing is complete, and then remove the printer. If you are allowed to manage documents on the printer, you can also cancel all print jobs, and then try to remove the printer again. For more information, see Cancel printing and that are printer permissions? 1. Open printers by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, hardware and soundand then click Printers. 2. Right-click the printer you want to remove and then click Remove.

• remove an old printer of the new iMac

  In the search for a new printer, reading the comments, I came across the suggestion to remove the etc. the old printer drivers before installing a new.   Some people have problems with their new printer, before doing this.  How this is done?   Is there a page from Apple with the instructions I can follow?

  Thank you

  You can go to the preferences system/printers, select the printer you want to remove and click on the '-' sign.

  If you want to remove the printing software, after doing the above, you can go to the library/printers and move the brand (for example Canon) printer folder to the trash. And maybe ~/Library/Printers and delete any file app (e.g. Canon MP560.app) brand printer.

  Then install your new printer driver you may be able to find at Apple or the web site of the manufacturer of the printer.

• HP ePrint App: how to remove old printer from HP ePrint App

  I'm trying to remove my last printer from my HP ePrint App, but whenever I want to print something from the old printer app still lists as an option as well. I have reset App Data, reinstalled the app, deleted from the site logged in and tried HP printer it slide sideways, looking for drop-down lists, etc... Any ideas would be appreciated!

  Thank you.

  Hey @Cpedron,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I hope you enjoy your stay here.

  I understand that you have an old printer that makes its appearance in the HP ePrint app that you no longer own. While I can't help you with the removal of the printer, I can help you prevent the printer to appear. To do:

  1. Reset the App data.
  2. Uninstall the HP ePrint app.
  3. Download the app again.
  4. During installation to validate the HP ePrint app for using a different e-mail address than the one you previously used.

  This should avoid the printer appear. Using a different e-mail to validate will have no effect on the operation of the program otherwise.

  Please let me know if this resolves your problems or if you have any other questions. If not, have a great day!

• New Windows 7 machine and old printer HP OfficeJet J4580

  I just bought a HP P7 1234 Windows 7 machine.  I plugged my old printer to my vista computer on my new HP machine.  It's a HP Officejet J4580 all-in-One.  Windows find drivers that work, but it did not load the HP Solution Center.

  I loaded the 130.0.44.62 HP Solution Center, but the function 'Add a device' does not see my printer connected to the USB port.

  As you can imagine after that reading the messages here, feeding high things and bottom, connection and disconnection of the devices is not work or help.  I can't not work printer from the HP Solution Center scan functions.  I am a loyal customer of HP, but it shouldn't be rocket science.  If there is no patch from HP that will make my HP Solution Center see my printer, or if not, there are only a few easy steps to solve this problem, can you recommend a current HP printer all in one for about $100 that will load and play as announced?

  Chris hoping he doesn't have to cut, delete, load and restart, load and restart, ad nauseam.

  Hello

  That's why I called many products such as Plug-n-Paray products (with many suppliers). In this case, please visit the following site to download the drivers for it and install them on your new computer.

• Windows 7 and HP LaserJet 5 p - old printer printer does not work with this new computer

  Just bought new PC and it has Windows 7.  Old HP LaserJet 5 p printer has always worked with last PC (XP).  This printer uses the parallel so purchased and plugged port with a parallel to USB printer cable.  Thought everything was cool when it seemed that the printer was recognized as "new device" but would not print my Word document.  Review of the Panel's PC recognized some other strange printer, so it has been deleted and I used the troubleshooter to find and download the old printer driver.  PC now shows the correct printer but my documents still won't print.  What can / should I do for these 2 working together?  Don't want to have to buy a new printer just to get something that works with 7.

  I was too frustrated. Finally, I solved the problem. I bought a parallel to USB cable head Gear. First attempts do not work. Unplug the printer from the computer. That removing all printers (some I just created trying). Make sure that you do not have the test pages in the queue (cancel all), otherwise impossible to remove printer. Also update windows drivers (to add the printer section). Turn off the computer. Connect printer USB available on the computer again. Turn on computer. And. You DID!
