Consolidating Print Servers


Print Migrator is a free tool from Microsoft that can be used to migrate print servers running Windows NT 4.0 Server to Windows 2000 Server or Windows Server 2003. Print Migrator has another use however, namely print server consolidation. Using Print Migrator you can migrate the configurations of multiple print servers to a single machine. Consolidation is a big thing in enterprises these days, and it’s a good way of saving money because you’ll need fewer machines. To consolidate print servers using Print Migrator, back up the configuration of each print server and then restore each configuration one at a time to the same target machine. Each new configuration migrated will merge (not overwrite) existing ones, and you should end up with a functioning, single print server.
