It depends on whether you're running Mac or Windows, but there's a quick,
easy way. Run Spyder3Print and use the File:Open Profiles command - it'll
open your printer profiles folder - and then just delete the ones you don't
want to keep around.

Remember: these are the "built" profiles we're talking about here - these
are what show up in Photoshop's popups.

There are also the measurement files you created in Spyder3Print - those
are what show up in Spyder3Print's popups. If you want to get rid of
those as well: use the File:Open Data command in Spyder3Print, and
delete the measurement files (with .xml extensions) that you don't
want to keep any longer.
