# Remove the BizPrint plugin from WooCommerce

Section: Manage

> Deactivate and delete the BizPrint plugin for WooCommerce, and decide whether to keep or erase its printer locations, using the Delete Data and Reset option.

This page shows you how to turn off or remove the [BizPrint plugin for WooCommerce](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#bizprint-plugin-for-woocommerce) from your WordPress site, and what happens to its data. It is for WooCommerce store owners and the people who manage their WordPress site.

## What happens to your data

The plugin keeps your [printer locations](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#printer-location) and its [**Print Job Queue**](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#print-job-queue) in WordPress. Whether they are erased depends on one option, **Delete Data and Reset**, on the plugin’s **Support** tab.

- **Delete Data and Reset not ticked (the default).** Your printer locations stay in WordPress when you deactivate the plugin, and even after you delete it. If you install and activate the plugin again, they are still there.
- **Delete Data and Reset ticked.** Your printer locations, with all their settings, and everything in the **Print Job Queue** are erased. This cannot be undone. If you activate the plugin again, you must create your printer locations again. See [Create a printer location in the BizPrint plugin for WooCommerce](https://docs.getbizprint.com/set-up/create-printer-location/).

Before you deactivate or delete the plugin for any reason, for example to test a problem with other plugins, leave this option unticked unless you want your BizPrint settings removed.

Removing the plugin does not change anything in the [BizPrint dashboard](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#bizprint-dashboard). Your [stations](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#station), [printers](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#printer) and [print job](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#print-job) history stay there.

## Check the Delete Data and Reset option

1. Sign in to WordPress as an administrator.
2. Go to **WooCommerce** > **Print Manager**.
3. Open the **Support** tab.
4. Find **Delete Data and Reset**, under **Plugin**.
5. Tick the box only if you want the plugin’s data erased. Untick it if you want to keep your printer locations.
6. Click **Save Changes**.

## Deactivate and delete the plugin

Once the plugin is deactivated, your store stops sending new WooCommerce orders to BizPrint, either automatically or by hand. Jobs that BizPrint already received before you deactivated the plugin may still print at your stations. Make sure your staff know before you start.

1. Check the **Delete Data and Reset** option, as described in [Check the Delete Data and Reset option](https://docs.getbizprint.com/manage/remove-plugin/#check-the-delete-data-and-reset-option).
2. Go to **Plugins** > **Installed Plugins** in WordPress.
3. Find **BizPrint Print Manager for WooCommerce**.
4. Click **Deactivate**.
5. Click **Delete**, if you also want to remove the plugin’s files from your site.
6. Confirm that you want to delete the plugin.

If you only want to stop printing for a while, deactivating is enough. Leave **Delete Data and Reset** unticked so that your printer locations are kept for when you activate the plugin again.
