Kodak Printer in Startup

[Xanthippe]

Here’s the problem. As you know, many programs simply love to insinuate themselves into Windows Startup and make their nasty little resource-hogging selves at home in the system tray. I like to keep these programs, except for the barest minimum, out of there. I keep my antivirus and a couple basics there. The rest, like Adobe stuff, I promptly remove from the startup. Most programs obey. I don’t need all these things in the startup… if I want them later, I can open them in the usual way.

Kodak printer software utterly refuses to stay out of the startup. I have removed it using msconfig, several programs that supposedly will clean up things, tried disabling it… all to no avail. It shows back up, by itself, within about twenty minutes of my having spanked it and sent it away! I have to manually delete it. Again. And again and again! My boss at my second job, to my dismay, has a Kodak All-In-One that I have to use, so I do not want to totally delete the driver… I just want it to stay out of my system tray until I want to use it! Kodak, probably because they are getting out of the printer business, has not responded to my requests for advice.

Can anyone help?

check on the printer settings if it is set to go with start up that where you should uncheck it .

Hi Scout_03... I have checked everyplace I can think of and I can't find anyplace where it says anything about start up settings in the printer settings!
