Uninstall Mac OS printer drivers

You can use the Fiery Software Uninstaller from the Terminal application for removal of the Fiery printer and corresponding printer driver on Mac OS X v10.7 and later using command-line functions.

During the uninstall process, the Fiery Software Uninstaller will not ask for any confirmation from the user, such as to close running applications or ask to retain preferences.

If an application is running, it will be closed and the uninstall will proceed without any confirmation from the user.

  1. Open the Terminal application.
  2. Type sudo FSU -s CurrentUserName Flag

    Where CurrentUserName can be provided as \”$USER\” or `whoami`. It is used to get the location of the user specific Library/Preferences folder.
