Uninstalling the printer driver

For Windows

Note:
  • To uninstall applications in Windows 2000, it is necessary to log on as a user with administrative privileges (a user who belongs to the Administrators group).
  • To uninstall applications in Windows XP, it is necessary to log on with a Computer Administrator account. You cannot uninstall applications if you log on as a Limited account user.

Turn off the printer and disconnect the cable from the printer.

For users of Windows Me, 98, and 2000, click the Start button, select Settings, and then choose Control Panel.
For users of Windows XP, click the Start button, and then choose Control Panel.

Double-click the Add/Remove Programs icon and select EPSON Printer Software from the list. Then, click Add/Remove (or Change/Remove in Windows XP and 2000).

Select the EPSON Stylus Photo 935 icon and click OK.

Click OK.

Note:
If you are using the USB port to connect the printer in Windows Me or 98, you need to uninstall an additional USB component. Select EPSON USB Printer Device from the list in the Add/Remove Programs utility, click Add/Remove, and then click OK when a message prompts you to restart the computer. If EPSON USB Printer Device does not appear in the Add/Remove Programs list, double-click EPUSBUN.EXE on the printer software CD-ROM, and then follow the on-screen instructions.

Note:
You cannot uninstall the printer driver under Mac OS X.

Turn on your Macintosh and insert the software CD in the CD-ROM drive. The EPSON printer software disk will open automatically.
