I just have built new windows 2003 print server and using
MS print migrator tool to migrate print queues from the
existing windows 2000 print servers. problem is that no
printers in the new print server are published in AD. What
did I do wrong?
 
If you open AD Users And computers and enable Uses, Groups and Computers as
containers in View menu. Do you see print queues the right pane if you
select computer object ? Are old queues still listed at the old server AD
object.

I ran into the same problem. Seems to have something to do with the
old print queues being out there. We used print migrator 3.
This is what be done to fix it:
1. Stop the print spooler on the old server
2. Force all print queues to republish on new 2003 server by
restarting the spooler
3. Start print spooler back up on old server once all new queues were
published and visible in AD.

Hope that helps Karen :-),
