As part of our disaster recovery plan we use the Print Migrator tool, available from Microsoft to grab a snapshot of our print servers once a week. The snapshot includes all the Printer Queues, the associated drivers, ports and monitors. Has anyone used this tool along with Print2PDF? Did it work, or did you have to re-install Print2PDF on the new server or rebuilt server?
I'm getting ready to run a disaster recovery simulation and any info on what I might expect to see would be appreciated.

Ran the disaster recovery scenerio, and Print Migrator did a good job of restoring the print queues, drivers and ports. The Print2PDF queue was restored, however the application and drivers were not restored. Print2PDF had to be re-installed to bring it back to a functional status. It would also have to be re-registered when reinstalled on the new hardware. This wasn't considered a major issue since the users would have it installed on their workstations already anyway.
