I was curious,

I have an old printer in Casper Admin that I inadvertently added to all of our machines when I imaged them. Is there a way I can create a policy to remove this printer from my Macs using a policy?

Thanks in advance,

Terry

The other option which is easy too. Write a script all it needs to contain
is this

lpadmin -x Brother_MFC_9840CDW

Replace Brother_MFC_9840CDW with the queue name of the actual printer and
deploy the script
