Printer setup

External Since: Nov 24, 2008 Posts: 1

I need to set up several printers in a server. All printers are
exactly the same brand and model. The only difference would be the ip
address and name.
Is there an easy way to set up the remaining printers once the first
one is done? I mean without manually repeating every step.
Any help would be appreciated.

I don't know if this will work ...

Configure the first printer and monitor the changes to your registry.
If the pattern is not yet evident, then configure the second printer.

Use Regedit to export the affected registry keys to a text file. Edit
this text file and add the necessary copies of the relevant keys. Then
import this modified REG file using Regedit.
