It's generally recommended to uninstall the old driver before installing a new one to avoid conflicts. In Windows, go to Control Panel > Programs and Features, find the Canon E510 driver, and uninstall it. In macOS, you may need to use the uninstaller application (if provided) or manually remove the printer from System Preferences > Printers & Scanners and then delete any related files in the Library folder.
