In that case you have two options:
1: Change the setting in the firmware (Bios or UEFI) to discreet graphics only and install only the Nvidia driver (no Bumblebee).
2: Install Nvidia driver and Nvidia prime (without Bumblebee) and set the prime tab in the Nvidia Control Center (nvidia-settings) to Nvidia instead of intel.
Nvidia prime can only use one GPU at a time for the entire system (desktop and apps)
Bumblebee lets you use one GPU for desktop and apps (usually intel), and only call on the other one (usually nvidia) for selected apps (aka 3d games, etc.)
