Removing printer driver completely from system

[Swiftie]

I'm trying to trouble shoot a printer problem. & I'm wondering if its possible to remove the printer driver from Leopard so that I can then try to reinstall the driver without worrying that there could be a confilct of new and old drivers.

In windows I can do Printers and Faxes -> File > Server Properties -> Drivers then do what I want on here.

Wondered if in Mac I can do the same thing?

Thanks

Delete all the folders under /Library/Printers that is where all the printer drivers are installed. There is also some software out there that will do it for you but I am to lazy to find it for you

Will this also remove any drivers that may have come with the system? If there is such a thing. Or just ones that I've tried to install myself?

Thanks for the reply by the way. ;)

It will remove all printer drivers - including the ones you installed and the ones that came with the OS. If you want to delete the ones you installed just find the folder within Library/Printers that contains the drivers you installed and delete those.
