The pc would not allow me to uninstall HP d series printer. Why? - I have no clue. I also cannot Uninstall?

Here are a few possibilities:


1. The printer has already been uninstalled, and you see merely a ';shell'; of things the installer did not delete out of the registry. You may be able to clean those up with CrapCleaner at www.majorgeeks.com or Lexun ScrubXP at the same place.


2. Sometimes, especially if there are jobs awaiting print in the que, the installer wont work, because the printer is active. Remember a ';printer'; is the software that runs a print device


(hardware), and just because the hardware has been removed does not necessarily mean the ';printer'; (software) has been uninstalled, so it can appear busy even with print device removed.


3. The Installer could be defective or could have been removed.The pc would not allow me to uninstall HP d series printer. Why? - I have no clue. I also cannot Uninstall?
To remove it from view in Programs, simply go to it right click and select delete. That will remove it from your start menu. Report Abuse

try installing(both softwares and device) it again and then remove the device from the device manager from system%26gt;hardware%26gt;device manager located in control pannel.some time what happen is that the device is not physically connected to the computer but because of its driver installed in the computer(hidden or shown) that is why it is shown in the device manager or not unistalled.
Maybe some files for uninstalling it is missing, you can delete the files by yourself.
Drag it to the trash or go under the config feature it should prompt you for the deletion or uninstall box. Good luck


You also need to be sure you don't have it set as your default printer or it will say it is in use and can not be uninstalled. If you still have the install disc there is an uninstall on that also.
