Re: Phantom printer removal

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



Control Panel -> Printers and Faxes -> right click the printer you
don't want and delete it.

| I've got a printer connected to a W98SE machine that is shared on a

work

XP driver

the
| printer listed twice on my printers list. Once as the share, and
once as the
| printer name which is grayed out (obviously). I want to rename the
gray
| printer "X-Printer" so it will reside at the bottom of the list so
others do
| not select it, but can't (there is no printer connected). Right now
it is at
| the top of the list when printers are selected from apps.
| How can I edit this name?
| Can I delete the printer name from the list without deleting the
driver?
