I am in process of cleaning up my XP/3 after a disaster. I have two
instances of two printers in "Printers and Faxes." How can I remove one each
of these instances? I have tried a simple Delete from the right key of the
icon. In each case I receive a "Deleting" notice which appears to be
permanent. ie: the 2nd instance of the printer does not delete

May thanks,

Peter.
