Hello!
I gonna move all my printers to a new server (the printer has the same name
and share on the new server) now i wanna change my users printers to the
right server (i only wanna switch the printers they have mapped). for example
if they have \\server1\printer1 i wanna change that to \\server2\printer1.
How do i do, with a script?

I guess you can either use a Print Migrator 3.1 (http://
www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9B9F2925-CBC9-44DA-B2C9-FFDBC46B0B17&displaylang=en),
VBScript to add printer listed in 'HOW TO: Programmatically Create a
Printer and Printer Port...' article (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/
321025) or you can use some third-party tools. As for us, we do that
with desktop authority http://www.scriptlogic.com where such changing
of printer requires just to change path in printer settings for user
profile and apply new settings for user.
