Duplicating Printer Config from L2000 to rx7620

I save the spooler config with sam and transfer to the new server.

Restore with sam failed,because the modelscript in /var/sam/lp/interface/ refer to jetadmin.

On the source we install HP11d621.SD
On the target we install HP11e134.SD

How can we copy the configuration ( 80 printers )?
Only with the same version of jetadmin?
Jetadmin 621 are not support yet.

Thanks for help.

Hmnn....going from parisc to Itanium...

Try the transferqueue command.

Or SAM via command line (but methinks this won't work either):

/usr/sam/lbin/lpmgr -S -v -xsa
vedir=/var/sam/lp/ ; cp -r -p /var/sam/lp/lp.new/* /var/sam/lp/

Then tar up /var/sam/lp/, ftp to new server, untar it:

/usr/sam/lbin/lpmgr -R -xsavedir=/var/sam/lp/

Thanks Geoff.

After extract we have to change the user permission to "lp" /var/sam/lp and to do a softlink ln -s for the old software jetadmin to the new software.

All printer now giong on rx7620.
