= Lazy Way Windows 7 =
For Windows 7, it is the pretty much the same as Vista you can migrate your printers with printbrm.
 
- Open the Administrative Tools folder, and then click Print Management.
 
- In the Print Management tree, right-click the name of the computer that contains the printer queues that you want to export, and then click Export printers to a file. This starts the Printer Migration Wizard.
 
- On the Select the file location page, specify the location to save the printer settings, and then click Next to save the printers. For this example, it'll be "BR-Prt-Smeagol.printExport". It contains a HP Color Laserjet 3800 printer.
 
The deployment after that is:
 
<source lang="xml">
<package
id="Printer Smeagol"
name="Office Printer - Smeagol"
revision="1.00"
priority="0"
reboot="false">
 
<variable name="Printer" value="Office Color Laserjet 3800 - Smeagol" />
<variable name="FileName" value="BR-Prt-Smeagol.printerExport" />
<check type="registry" condition="equals" path="HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers\%Printer%\Name" value="%Printer%" />
<install cmd='"c:\windows\system32\spool\tools\printbrm.exe" -r -f %SOFTWARE%\Printers\%FileName% -O FORCE' />
</package>
</source>
