I got an error from print server as below:

"Registry path missing or invalid"
"The registry entries for the HP LaserJet Director have become corrupt or are invalid.
The software must be reinstall to correct this problem."

Q1. I have more than 15 network printers install on this print server. How do I know which HP LaserJet Director has become corrupt?

Q2. If I want to setup a new and powerfull
print server and want to keep all existing printers and their drivers. What files must be copied over to the new print server?

Thank in advance

In response to migrating the print server, there is no way to do this out of the box, however there is a utility included with NT Server Resource Kit Supplemet 3 called PRINTMIG.EXE, that will allow you to backup and restore your print configurationto a new server.
