HP Device Manager still in menu after HPLIP uninstall
I have uninstalled HPLIP according to the directions on http://hplipopensource.com/node/188 from Xubuntu 14.04, meaning that I typed this into my terminal emulator:
sudo rm -rf /usr/share/hplip
sudo rm -rf /etc/hp
sudo rm -rf ~/.hplip
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/hp
Those commands removed everything, but a shortcut to HP Device Manager is still in my menu. Of course, when I click it it says it can't find the executable but that's normal because it's a shortcut. So, is this a bug or did I do something wrong and how do I fix it?
Works for me:
cd /usr/share/hplip
sudo python uninstall.py
I fixed it! I just had to reinstall HPLIP, go to the directory where the installer extracted all of the files, run sudo make uninstall
, delete the files using the commands, restart my system, and it was done.
