Print Server Upgrade

[kalpeshh]

Hi,
We have NT 4.0 Print server with aproximately 100s printer. We want to upgrade it to W2k print server without installing each printer manually. What is the best solution?
Please help.

Why bother if its only a print server ?

Hope you have read it as we have 100's of printer in it, it is quite a lot of work to manually install each one in new server.

There is a utility in the resource kit (printmig.exe) that will copy all the printers to the new machine.

Yes but you must have the same structure
and not for example a directory like c:\Wintbackup and a other c:\winnt that don't work...
I have this problem encoured...
But this utility works as verywel.
Good luck.
