Utility to clean up plotter configs

We just started using DWG Viewer from Autodesk. We use to use Voloview. Our drawings have been created in various versions of AutoCAD, and are in the process of setting up AutoCAD 2006 LT.

Over the years we have renamed the printer used to plot the drawings and it appears that this info was saved with the plotter configuration in the DWG file.

When we print/plot a drawing there may be a warning message stating that the driver cannot be found, yet it is simply an old printer name.

Does anyone know of a utility that will allow me to change this data en masse? I would like to make all drawings have the same plotter configuration name.

If not, does anyone have any suggestions/tips to overcome this false warning?
