There is a tool prtmig? (sp) that may or may not work been 2003 and 2008.
It makes a cab with the entire print environment on the "from" and then on the "to'" creates all of the queues and installs the dirvers ________________________________ From: Ehren Benson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, June 04, 2009 10:31 AM To: Active Directory Admin Issues Subject: Print Server Migration Hi, I am not sure if there is an *easy* way to do this or not but I figured it was worth asking. I have a Windows Server 2003 R2 system that is our print server. I want to decommission the box as it is older and set it all up on a new Win2008 server machine. Is there an easier way to move all the installed, shared printers than documenting all the information and manually installing them on the new machine, sharing them, and then telling everyone (300+ clients) to delete their installed printers and connect to the new shares?
