RE: [ActiveDir] Pruning printers from AD
By default they will appear as objects under the parent print server object. For example, if you click the print server in the left hand pane you should see the printQueue object in the right hand pane. Simply right-click the printQueue object and select delete and it will be removed from Active Directory.

RE: [ActiveDir] Pruning printers from AD
