Hi Mark,

Thanks for your post.

My understanding on this issue is that you want to migrate printers from
one server to another and at the same time change the name of the queue and
printer names. If I have misunderstood, please feel free to let me know.

Do you refer to printer migrator 3.1? If so, based on our test, we cannot
change the printer name during the migration since we only can backup and
restore the printer in Print Migrator.

You may need to achieve this goal by using script. Regarding the script
issue, you would best be address in the Developer newsgroups. I have
provided the link below:

Or you may ask for developer support:

To get more information about the Print Migrator, please refer to the
following articles:

HTH!
