Question about setting up a print server

We have an exisiting print server, a Windows 2000 Server with 24 network
printers installed on it.  We have recently ordered a new print server and
will install Windows 2003 Server on it.  We have over a hundred users and I
am curious what the best practice is for migrating them from the old print
server to the new print server.  I do not want to have to instruct them on
how to delete/install printers, they are your typical end users.

Thank you!

This will update your clients' printers to the new print server through a
logon script.
