    Windows 7 keeps putting wireless printer back after deleting


    I have an artisan 830 printer installed wireless and in device manager it lists the same printer but says copy next to it and is shaded meaning its not currently attached

    I delete the printer and it goes away, but if i click refresh it comes straight back, i tried deleting both the copy and the artisan and then reinstalled the artisan but no matter how many times i delete the copy it returns after refreshing the page

    tried that and still nothing
    i think i need to entirely delete all drivers related to the epson printers and reinstall
    but i cannot find an option to do that

    try the epson install disk it may have the uninstall option on the disk. make sure your login as the administrator to do this.Also check the start menu for epson as well for the uninstaller

    have you entered msconfig enter startup and remove the printer settings

    thats start/run/msconfig
    also enter services.msc and delete all reference to the artisan 830

    Epson Artisan 835, FAQ - Technical Support - Epson America, Inc.

    found this link how to uninstall the 835 should be the same for your 830
