3.5 Uninstalling the printer driver 3
Tips
- In Windows XP/Server 2003, even if the printer driver is removed using the preceding method, the mod-
el information file will remain in the computer. For this reason, when reinstalling the same version of the
printer driver, the driver may not be rewritten. In this case, remove the following files as well.
– Check the "C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\w32e86" folder (In the e64 system,
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\e64" folder), and if there is a folder of the corresponding mod-
el, remove it. However, if multiple drivers are installed including the GDI printer driver, PCL printer driver,
and fax driver, the model information of all drivers is deleted. To leave drivers other than the fax driver,
do not remove the folder.
– From the "C:\WINDOWS\inf" folder, delete "oem*.inf" and "oem*.PNF" ("*" included in the file name in-
dicates a number, which differs depending on the computer environment).
Before removing these files, open the inf file, and then check the model name described on the last few
lines to confirm it is the file for the corresponding model. The number of the PNF file is the same as that
of the inf file.
– In Windows Vista/7/Server 2008/Server 2008 R2, the above procedure is not required if [Remove driver
and driver package.] is selected for uninstallation.
