Delete Network printer


I finally found out how to delete network printers in windows 7.  One way is to login as administrator’s privileges’.  That is too easy.

I wanted to be able to do it from the command prompt and logged in as a normal user.

Here is how you do it:

1      Open up a command prompt with elevated privileges.
2       From the command prompt enter this command and put the name of the printer you want to delete.

"rundll32 printui.dll PrintUIEntry /dn /n\\printerservername\printername"
remove the quotes
