When I did this I simply disabled it and used another 'test' GPO that I'm experimenting with. When trying to install the printer-specific PCL6 driver from the CD or from an older file downloaded previously from in Windows, the installation fails and you cannot print to an HP LaserJet Enterprise or an HP PageWide Enterprise printer. Note that any items that say 'Per Machine' in the right column are the ones that are keeping you from deleting the printer on local machines.Īlso, the GPO still exists. I know it seems counter-intuitive to fix this with the "Deploy with Group Policy" button, and that's why it seems so hidden to me.
Select the item you want to remove and click "Remove" on the right, or in your case, just choose "Remove All" Each item listed in the grid on the bottom half of this dialogue box is a GPO.
In the right pane, right-click on your printer and choose "Deploy with Group Policy". In the left pane, click "Deployed Printers". On your print server, go to Print Management. Click in the dialogue.So, I had this exact issue and kept pulling my hair out - I'd remove the printer via the Registry, but it would keep coming back. ・ If removal is rejected, restart the computer and perform steps 4 to 10 again. When the dialogue appears, click then. If a message appears asking if you want to remove just the printer driver or remove the printer driver and package from the system, select and click. Select the printer driver to remove, and then click. Select an icon from, and then click from the top bar. ・ If a message indicating that the device is in use appears, restart the computer and perform steps 1 and 2 again. Choose one of the Printers and Right-click on the printer and select remove. When the confirmation message appears, click. From the menu, select Devices and Printers. To remove a specific printer driver from multiple printer drivers, select the printer driver you wish to remove from. Right-click your printer's icon, and then select. ・ Remove the printer driver after restarting the computer. ・ After completing these procedures, you will need to log in as administrator. Follow the procedures below to remove a printer driver.
