Transferência de configurações da impressora para outra instalação do Windows

Question

é possível transferir as configurações da impressora para outra instalação do Windows? Quero dizer, as configurações que você pode definir e salvar em qualquer caixa de diálogo de impressão (preferências de impressão).

Obrigado Thomas

Exportando a configuração para um arquivo

1. Press "Windows-X" to open the Power User menu and click "Command Prompt" to launch the Command Prompt utility. The default working folder is your user folder.

2. Type "cd Desktop" (without the quotation marks) into the Command Prompt and press "Enter" to change the working directory to the Desktop. You can locate the configuration file quickly on the desktop. In case you changed your default working directory, provide a complete path to get to the desktop: "cd c:\Users\Your_Username\Desktop" and press "Enter." If your default working directory is on a different partition, type "c:" and press "Enter" to change the partition and then change the working directory to Desktop.

3. Type printui.exe /Ss /n "Printer_Name" /a "File_Name" into the Command Prompt. The "/Ss" parameter exports all printer settings to a binary file specified by the "/a" parameter. The "/n" parameter specifies the name of the target printer.

4. Replace "Printer_Name" with the name of the printer. To get the name of the printer, type "Devices and Printers" on the Start screen and click the "Devices and Printers" entry; all installed printers are listed in the Printers and Faxes section. Replace "File_Name" with the name you want to give to the configuration file -- "configuration.dat" for example. Use quotes around the printer name and file name if the names contain more than one word. Press "Enter" to run the command and export all settings to the file and then transfer the file to the second computer and place it on the Desktop.

Importando a configuração do arquivo

1. Launch the Command Prompt utility on the second computer and change the working folder to the Desktop using the "cd" command.

2. Type printui.exe /Sr /n "Printer_Name" /a "File_Name" into the Command Prompt. The "/Sr" parameter restores all information contained in the file specified by the "/a" parameter. The "/n" parameter specifies the name of the target printer.

3. Replace "Printer_Name" with the name of the printer. Again, you can get the name from the Printers and Faxes section of the Devices and Printers window. Replace "File_Name" with the name of the file that contains the printer configuration. Again, use quotes around the printer name and file name if the names contain more than one word. Press "Enter" to import the settings from the file.

4. View the settings to ensure everything was imported successfully. Open the Devices and Printers window, right-click the printer and click "Printing Preferences." To view the advanced settings, click the "Advanced" button.
