Go to [Administration], and click [Delete Printer].
Confirm that "driverless" has disappeared from the Make and Model column.

sudo dpkg -P ql820nwblpr
Open "http://localhost:631/printers" in your browser.
Click [Printers] and then select your QL-820NWB printer.
Select [Delete Printer] from the [Administration] menu.
Confirm that the QL-820NWB printer is no longer listed on the page.
