It is not advised to use "appdelete" type programs for the fact that there are hundreds of thousands of programs/apps and developers changing them all the time, thus it's almost impossible to keep up with all the changes.

The Downloads folder is not a storage place, rather if you wish to keep a installer, place it someplace else in your User folders, like creating a folder called "Installers" or "Downloaded PDFs" and keeping them in your Utilities or Documents folders in your Home directory.Ĭoncerning appdelete/appremoval type software

It is not advised to keep downloaded programs in the Downloads folder, rather to keep this clear at all times except during a known active download as to be wary of bad websites that will cause a "driveby download" hoping one will click or run to infect their machine. Since "self contained" programs or apps can be run from just about anywhere they are placed, like in User Account folders so only that User can run them, however for global use amongst all User Accounts on the machine and in most cases of installers, they are stored in the Applications and/or Applications > Utilities folder. These types of programs are what we call "self contained" meaning everything it pretty much requires is inside the Application icon which is really a hidden folder called a "package". If the developer then says it's perfectly fine to drag the application icon located in the Applications or Applications > Utilities folder to the Trash, then you can do that. If one simply only drags the application icon they see in their Applications or Utilities folder to the Trash, what happens is these leftover parts in OS X itself don't get updated for compatibility with later OS X updates and/or might cause a security or stability issue later on which the machine will boot to a "Gray Screen Issue" and remain stuck. It might have placed "hooks" into the OS X kernel called kext files that load when OS X boots up or in other locations that require a uninstaller to use root level power to uninstall correctly.

(Based on limited info on forthcoming Catalina 10.The best way is to contact the developers site for uninstall instructions, especially if the software required you to enter your Admin password to install. Does it remove existing AirPrint queues that are already mapped? Does it block print jobs from being sent to AirPrint printers? Does it prevent the Mac from mapping AirPrint queues? Does the restriction block the Mac from discovering/seeing AirPrint queues? Apple deosnt have much information on this restriction.
In my testing, I cant really tell what its actually supposed to do. I have experimented with the AirPrint restrictions MDM profile payload.
Initially they sound interested in working with me to examine this problem, but they haven't followed-up in almost a year. I have reached-out to Printopia, but they are slow to respond, and are hard to get ahold of. To avoid confusion, I'm trying to figure out a way to prevent the Macs from seeing these AirPrint queues but allow iOS devices to print. On occasion, Mac users do not realize they already have their printers mapped, so they will manually browse the network and "discover" AirPrint queues that are intended for my iOS devices. The Macs use HP socket protocol and print directly to the printers (no need for a CUPS or Windows printer server in my situation).
All Mac desktops and laptops get printers mapped via Jamf policies (based on what dept they are located in). However, my Macs currently do not use AirPrint. Users are always blown-away when they realize they can print with zero configuration from the device in their pocket. iPhone and iPad users can quickly print to printers on-the-fly, from meetings, walking down the hall, etc.

I have an Printopia Pro AirPrint server configured for iOS devices. Does anyone have a suggestion for blocking AirPrint discovery on macOS?
