Using Print Migrator 3.1. I am trying to restore printers from 2000 and 2003
print servers to a 2000 terminal server. The restore always finishes with
restore compromised. The pm.log file shows the following problems:

I have tried using the local administrator account as well as several
enterprise/domain admin accounts and it always finishes with the same result.
I have 200+ printers to install from 15 different print servers and would
really like to use the migrator utility.

Thanks
 
I have exactly the same issue. I'm guessing you've remapped your C drive to be something else, I had. So upon just mapping a drive and calling it C the printmig.exe could create a temp file to be imported to the registry.
