Print and Scan shows 5 printers

Print and Scan Doctor shows 5 printers. 

How do eliminate the 4 not necessary? Why are they there?

I just uninstalled the software for the 8620 and reinstalled because the printer that I have been using for 5 years was no longer working.

Thanks for the detailed reply  but the phot shows HP's Print and Scan Doctor results.  When I go  to settings it shows only one printer.
