Uninstalling
Uninstall software when it is no longer needed, or if a problem occurs and
uninstalling becomes necessary. Note that if you uninstall software, you will
not be able to use the printer to print.
• When uninstalling, under Windows 2000 or Windows XP, be sure to log
on with the Administrator privileges. If you do not use Administrator
privileges to uninstall, registry entries will remain under the privileges of
the person who did the installation, and a delete error will result.
• After uninstalling, be sure to start Windows again.
• For Windows 98 or Windows Me, if you cannot uninstall using the
following procedure, perform the procedure described in Troubleshooting
the Printer Driver Installation (Windows 98/Me) (➡ p.27).
