The article applies to Macintosh computers enrolled in Jamf.

 

Resolution


  1. Navigate to Software Center (Gustavus G on your dock)

  3. Read description: "This will remove ALL printers from your device EXCEPT for GusPrint and GusPrint-Color"
  4. Click Remove Printers again

Gustavus Technology Services may make changes to the printers and their locations on campus. Previous printers installed on your device may no longer exist in that certain location or have since been renamed.
