My printer won't print at all. Worked fine yesterday. Today - nothing.

How do I uninstall and reinstall this device?

Thanks.

Google the maker of your printer and support. Like (HP support)

I have an HP printer and they checked it while I was online and told me what to do to get it going again. Not real people, just an online test, and it was free.

Canon support sucks. I use to love the BJC 600 series. Fvker was $600 when it came out in '93, best printer though for about the next 5 years. Lasted 9, I can see why you want to get it working. My advice would be to load it on another computer to rule out that the printer is actually broken. Mine broke in the middle of a document and never showed any sign before that.
