Dear all,
We are in the process of migrating print servers. I need a way of migrating 180 workstations to the new print server rather than manually having to change servers for each workstation. Has anyone got any clues?

you can script it to do so. look at microsofts technet for direction. but if all your doing is upgrading {is that what you mean by migrating?} then you shouldnt need to change anything. good luck AJ
