So last year, CCF started using the Pharos print system in the labs. This is how they can use the little Windows XP kiosk print swip estations (and have a tighter control over print management) to release print jobs. This also enables them to have printing via RUWireless. This is pretty cool, except you have to install software to use it (they are nice enough to have a OS X installer, but no Linux… boo). No big deal, but now you have this crap software on your system and they don’t tell you how to uninstall it (don’t even try going to pharos’ site, it’s garbage). They were nice enought to actually have an uninstaller (versus click and drag to the trash can), but like I said, they make no mention of it. Well, I’ll make a mention of it:
/Library/Application Support/Pharos/Uninstaller.pkg
You can uninstall that crap from your OS X machine now. From what I seen, it removes everything, even the receipt files.
