    Issues removing PDF Printer


    Hi,


    I have issues removing my Adobe PDF Printer.


    I removed Adobe DC without any problem and the PDF Printer doesn't show up anymore on the devices and in the printer list.


    But the PDF-printer still shows up in word & publisher -> print document -> Printers.


    I says 3 doc's are still in the queue but nowhere can I find how to remove the printer.

    Print to PDF missing in Printer List

    Hi William,

    We suggest that you disable and re-enable the Print to PDF feature. Here are the steps:

    • Click on the Start menu and type in Windows Features.
    • Choose Turn Windows features on or off.
    • On the next window, find Microsoft Print to PDF and disable it. Click
      OK to save changes.
    • Restart your PC.
    • Repeat the same steps to re-enable Microsoft Print to PDF.
    If the issue persists, we suggest that you perform the troubleshooting steps suggested on the link below under

    Thanks for your help. I was browsing the web the other day and I found a page called FINAL DRAFT. They had a set of instructions for reinstalling the Microsoft Print to PDF utility that worked great for me. Problem solved.

    Issues removing PDF Printer

    Default network printer randomly defaults to the adobe PDF printer


    Start button > Settings > Devices > Printers and scanners >click at your printer > click Set as Default > click at Microsoft Print to PDF > click Remove device > click Yes to confirm >
    I would suggest that you enable Let Windows manage my default printer option. That way, your default printer will be the last printer used.
