HP Product Research on Activity Log

I'm seeing an item on my activity monitor called 'HP Product Research.'

I assume it's associated with some HP Printer drivers that I no long need, and have have removed, but this tracker keeps hanging around.

Any ideas on how to get rid of this tracker?

Solution 1:

Yo may find this app here:

/Library/Printers/hp/Utilities/HPPU Plugins/ProductImprovementStudy.hptask/Contents/Helpers/HP Customer Participation.app

Just move it to the trash.

Solution 2:

There's an official way to remove it: Run HP Customer Participation.app from the HP application folder. There's a checkbox to 'opt out' of product research.
