To remove the DirectPort print driver from your Windows 95/98 system, use the
standard Windows Add/Remove Programs option from within the control panel.
Do not attempt to delete the folder that the DirectPort installation program
creates. Doing so will cause the Windows Add/Remove Programs function to fail.
In addition, you will not be able to reinstall the DirectPort print driver. If the
DirectPort folder has been deleted, you must also delete the IOPMON.DLL file
from the Windows/System directory.
