Uninstall the Printix Client

Follow these instructions to uninstall the Printix Client from Windows and Mac computers.

If you uninstall the Printix Client, your Printix printers are converted to standard network printers.

The printer IDs are removed from the printer names. Your administrator may have configured printer IDs to not be visible to users.

Windows

Open the Control Panel and select Programs and Features.
Select Printix Client and select Uninstall.

If Printix Client was installed with Windows Installer (MSI), select the Printix Client without Printix logo (smallest size).
You are prompted to confirm the uninstallation. Select Yes.

The uninstallation is complete.
Select OK.

Alternatively, you can run unins000.exe in the Printix Client installation folder.

If your organization has used, for example, Microsoft Endpoint Manager to deploy Printix Client as a required application, then Printix Client will be installed again.

Open the Printix Client menu.
Press the Option key to toggle Sign in to Uninstall.

On a Windows keyboard, press the Alt key instead of the Option key.
Select Uninstall.
If the uninstallation fails, it could be because you are not signed in. Select Sign in and then select Uninstall again. Alternatively, you can run the script:
```
sh /Users/Shared/.Printix.net/Service/uninstallMac.sh
```
On macOS 10.15 or older, you should use:
```
sudo /Users/Shared/.Printix.net/Service/uninstallMac.sh
```
