Printer queue migration

Does anyone know how to copy a printer queue? If possible, I'd like to copy it from one printer server to another.

I've been told that there's a "Printer queue migration tool" available for free from MS, but I can't seem to find it.
 
It works, but it isn't great. There's no selection as to what to backup/restore, it just backs up everything printer related on a given server. This includes WINX86 V2 drivers, V3 drivers, WIN40 V0 drivers, W32ALPHA V2 drivers, W32ALPHA V3 drivers, third party monitors, print queues (which is really all I wanted to backup/restore), print processors and the registry.

Anyone know of a better solution? One where I can select given printer queues and backup/restore them selectively?
