How to Disable XPS Document Writer

XPS is Microsoft's attempt to dethrone Adobe's ubiquitous PDF format. It's an uphill battle because PDF format is so entrenched. So far, the XPS format is nowhere near the heel of PDF. It does not help that Microsoft installs the XPS printer by default in Windows. Remove it is easy if you are the only person using the computer, but for a public PC, whenever a new person logs in, his profile may get the XPS printer as the default printer. It's not the end of the world, but it is annoying.

So to disable the XPS printer, follow the link below. It's a pretty easy thing to do.

Now, my next project is to find an easy way to remove the Send to OneNote printer.
