I want to setup identical printers on two different machines, but I don't want to install each printer individually on each machine. Is there a way that I can export a registry key that contains all of the printers from one machine and import it on the other so I don't have to install each printer one by one? Thanks for any help.

Set up the printers on one machine and "share" them. Go to the other computer, Start>run>printers>add printer, network printer>browse to the printer and click OK. It will install the printers on the 2nd computer.
