Choose "System Preferences" from the Apple Menu (upper left corner) then click on "Print and Fax". Select the printer you want to remove and click on the "-" button below the printers list. Confirm by pressing "Ok".

The best and easiest solution is, if you have just installed OS X, to reinstall it without the unnecessary printers. If this is no way for you, go to the directory /Library/Printers. In this directory exists for every printer facturer a subdirectory. You can delete the directories directly or better rename it in the first step.

Open the "Print Center" from Applications -> Utilities. Once the printer list window is open, click the printer from the list and click delete.
