Hi,
perhaps this is the most stupid question. but I do need the answer.
I'm installing printer over network, but I mistake installed the
driver, and the printer is not show at the Printers folder. how do I
remove those printer driver and correct the driver?
Any help is very valuable.
thanks

this sounds like the print spooler service failed.

Restart the spooler first. If the driver causes the spooler to fail before
you can actually remove the driver, then read through these instructions
