Hello,

I want to move a CUPS configuration from one host to another (or do a
re-install from scratch) but without having to add all my 50++ printers
again;

I've checked the installed CUPS tree and it seem that it is enough to save
and copy to its place again the following files:

etc/cups/ppd/*.ppd
etc/cups/cupsd.conf
etc/cups/printers.conf

Anything I'm missing? Thanks
