The Settings Icon is missing on my MacBook Pro toolbar

I can't locate Settings anywhere. I am running Mojave 10.14.1. I would like to remove an old printer but can't locate the Settings function anywhere. I have no idea what happened. Any help apreciated!

System Preferences in Mojave is beach balling - taking forever to load PrintersScanners and then when its loads, takes forever to see the 2 printers that were there [I restarted my iMac and they disappeared from PrintersScanners] and now it takes forever to find the drivers. Before I rebooted everything was fine. I have an EtreCheckPro report to share ==

Print Issue I have a Macbook Air, running Mojave 10.14.2. I am running Chrome Version 75.0.3770.142. My printing issue only concerns google, that is, when I try to print gmail, google docs etc. I have no issue when I try to print Mac Pages, for example. The issue is that the Print Dialogue screen is completely grayed out. The grayed out print destination field is frozen to a another printer in our home that doesn't even show up on System Preferences > Printers and Scanners. On the Print Dialogue screen, I can still print if I choose the "print using system dialogue" option. See image for details. Anyone got any ideas?

Goto the APPLE icon then select System Preferences, then select Printers & Scanners
