Solve : Scanner can't be removed from computer?

1.	Solve : Scanner can't be removed from computer?
Answer» My computer has a scanner installed in the control panel that I do not have or ever did. It shows Xerox workcentre pro scanner. It is primary to the extent that after doing a long fix from Canon for my all-in-one, it kicks it out after a few days and have to do the fix again. I cannot remove this Xerox item and I am no computer novice. Xerox has not responded to my request for help. Canon says they can go no further then what they have, which I think has always been outstanding tech support for free. Quote from: Charlie361 on JULY 26, 2010, 11:31:42 AM I cannot remove this Xerox item and I am no computer novice.. Exactly how did you try to remove it? Is a program for it shown on your Programs menu? Is is listed in your Add or Remove Programs list (in Control Panel)? It is in the control panel under scanners and nothing will remove it so far.Opps. It is not in the add or remove listings , but the canon is . Quote from: soybean on July 26, 2010, 11:36:58 AM Exactly how did you try to remove it?
