Turn off Desktop Printer and it will not reappear after trashing it. From Sys
6.0.8 to OS 9.1 I had not used Desktop Printer until trying to resolve a
problem with a Keyspan USB/serial adapter.
Another idea is to put the icon just off the edge of the desk, where it is
not seen. If you ever need it use the Finder to locate it and drag and drop
it from the found list to the desktop.
I have use the Apple Menu Items trick for sometime now. It is great.
