Multiple copies of printer driver installed every time printer is connected
Because my multi-port USB hub is currently on the blink, I have to temporarily disconnect my printer cable to use the USB port on my Mac whenever I need to use another USB device on this port. When I reconnect my printer (Brother laser printer), the driver for this printer is reinstalled automatically and I end up with multiple copies of this printer displayed in my print dialog window. Of course, all of these printers also show up in the Print & Fax System Preferences pane. I suppose there really is no problem here, but I feel compelled to get rid of all the extra copies of the printer driver.
Is there a fix for this?
