i have installed 60 printer to my PDC. Now i want to configure the same printer setting to another server. Is there any way that i can install back the printer without reinstallating one by one.

Thanks

I'm not sure 100% (I don't have the CD at me now) but I think that I saw in resource kit a "print migrator" which can backup all installed printer on a server and then offer an easy way to restore these on other server. Check and try to find "printmgr.exe" in resource kit.

NT resource kit includes a utility called printmig.exe
this utility can back up the printer settings on one server and be restored to another.
One caveat in using this utility is that all
print monitors (eg hp jet direct) that are installed on the source print server must be installed on the target server prior to running the restore.
