Can this desk be put together without the printer shelf?

Yes and I even had to take out the shelf where the tower goes because my tower wouldn't fit. You might want to measure that before...its not fun taking the desk apart to remove that lol.

Yes, and the holes for the screws are hidden as well by a thin vinyl coating on the desk that you normally have to pierce with screws. So if you do not add the shelf it won't look weird. It's a complicated desk to put together but overall VERY good.

If you don't have use for the printer stand don't attach it to the desk top. When you come to that step in the setup instructions skip by it and complete the desk. But don't dispose of the printer stand. Save it you might need it in the future. I myself I installed my printer stand because I have a full size printer, and it fits perfectly.I would recommend this desk to anyone. It is a good buy for the money. Plus it's backed by Amazon.

not sure, perhaps you could remove bottom panel of middle drawer. track down mfr and ask them. or lay files flat. desk is nice/good value

You could, but the reverse-Z metal frame (from floor to the edge of the higher shelf) is one piece. It's a very handsome and functional desk/table, but it is trim, so that extra shelf is very useful for the cup of coffee, charger cable, framed photo, pencil jar, unopened mail, etc. to keep your work space uncluttered.

yea you can work without the shelf if you want to if the holes for the shelf pins don't bother you then you're good, you can always makeshift something to cover them up. I was gonna do the same but I needed space management eh, the keyboard part you can leave out as well if you don't need it, and on the sturdy side this desk looks like is gonna be solid for years to come, again make sure you got the space cause this thing is big. The back of the board edges are not laminated but you can always laminate them, but overall its a great looking desk.

You probably don't want to do that. Its really unstable when its in 2 pieces. There are much better desks that are meant to be one wall pieces. Not a great buy. Very cheap material

Think it would be a little tight to have both on desk. Printer will not fit on shelf or ontop of desk...Hope this helps!

The shelf is not removable and the back is solid. I suppose you might build it w/o the shelf but that would not be as designed.

We've been extremely pleased with this desk. Five stars! It will take some time to assemble, however. If you pull the shelf out more, then the desktop won't be secure or have enough support. So, the answer to your question is "no".

No. The available desk space fits my desktop Mac on it with little else room. From the shelving to the edge of the desktop is about 25.5 inches. The printer fits nicely under the shelving on the desktop space but the shelves are low enough where you cannot get a screen underneath.

It would fit only if you left out the shelf in the lower right hand side, (the lower left hand side is the pull out shelf for the printer) I personally do not need that shelf but did put it in place, but I do like the desk very much and assembly was not that hard.

I don't believe so. You can set it up without but you may need to add a stabilizing bar to the underside of the top if you eliminate the bottom. Also, this is a very small piece to be used as a desk...

Yes, you can use the cabinet without the shelves. As I recall the middle shelf can be adjusted.

This desk is more suitable to place a printer on. It has a shelf at the bottom so you really couldn't put your feet underneath the desk. I have my desk next to my computer and I enjoy glancing at the TV so I have it on the top of the desk and I put my printer on the bottom shelf. After sending my original answer to you, I realized that it probably would work for you as I am not using the pull out shelf for the keyboard.

No, I wouldn't assemble without the shelf, for all the reasons that you noted. Hope thus was helpful! P.S. Great piece of furniture!

I'm pretty sure that there would be holes without the monitor shelf. We don't have the keyboard tray on, it just sits on top of the desk.

Yes, if you do not install the desk, the bookcase can be placed at the other end.
