hi confuseis,
the cmd ok me:
to backup type
printbrm.exe –b –s \\sourceservername –f \\uncpath\name.printerexport
to restore
printbrm.exe -r -s \\destinationservername –f \\uncpatch\name.printerexport
please provide both source , destination servers system version, , check application column in event viewer find if there error or failure during migration.
in addition, migrate printer, please refer article:
migrating print queues using printbrm, configuration files, , generic/text driver
if there else regarding issue, please feel free post back.
best regards,
anna wang
