Unable to delete a copy of a local printer

I mistakenly installed a second copy of a local printer and I can't delete it
nor enter into the properties to see if I have permission?? Any help would be
appreciated

Re: Unable to delete a copy of a local printer

What error message do you get when you try to delete the printer? Is it the
same error you get when you try to open properties on the printer?
