EFI Print Job Monitor for Canon Color Printers

The EFI Job Monitor is an applet that runs when you install the Canon copier printer drivers. It is annoying but not dangerous.
Maverick

Unwanted Software: Came with a Xerox copier driver and difficult to remove ever since. Deleted associated DLL files in Spool folder & registery keys and sometimes comes back. Due to the nature of it reinstalling itself quietly and difficult to permanently remove I rate it dangerous. Called EFI support and was quickly turned away.
Jason Ochs

Installing itself only in one of my offices out in the boonies, comes up with an error that doesn't make any sense that I can tell, and then the print job prints anyway. Impossible to reliably remove, unwanted, having no luck tracking it down, rating it as dangerous. If you see this, good luck. Leaving it is unacceptable and removing it is next to impossible. Don't run any Canon or Xerox printers, only Konica Minoltas.
