Hi,

Apologies for jumping in.

 

You may also remove older printers directly from the HP Utility.

 

First be sure older printers no longer appear under System Preferences > Printers & Scanners.

 

From HP Utility click the top Device tabm then you may right click any listed device in the left pane (or CTRL + Left click) and select Remove Device.

Thanks The_Fossette, but i'm not looking to remove printer drivers, just an obsolete printer and a double entry. I've allready received the solution.
