Deleting printers

You can remove a printer from the system.

A printer must have been added. See Configuring a printer without adding a queue (SMIT) and Configuring a printer without adding a queue (qprt command).
You must have root authority.

Deleting a printer does not remove any print queues that send print jobs to that printer. If you want to also delete the print queues, see Deleting a print queue.

To remove a printer using the SMIT:

At the system prompt, type smit rmprt and then follow the instructions to complete the task.
