===== Removing drivers =====

Go to item **All Drivers**. If you have installed your driver from a standalone installator, we recommend you to **Remove Driver Package...** . If you have simply selected the driver from a list offered by Windows when installing the printer, we recommend you to **Delete** it.

If you are trying to remove the driver without removing the printer beforehand, or the driver is used also by another printer than the one you removed, the system won't allow you to remove the driver.
