Purging the HPLIP

Asked by Mark Preston

HPLIP, at power up, says System Tray missing and clicking the HP icon opens to a mostly blank box (window). I want to purge the entire software and re-install.

I want to delete any directories (folders) the HPLIP has written to my hdd to insure complete removal/purge and then start over.
