Hi Jim,
thanks for your effort. I have looked at /etc/lp directory and there are some soft links to /usr/lib/lp/model/ and /var/lp/logs directories (these looks to be existing in each Solaris installation).
I have found that in folder /etc/lp/priters are subfolders named based on particular printer names. These folders includes printer config file and probably user authorisation.
So probably copy /etc/lp can be sufficient for successful migration.
Currently I'm not sure about printer queues, they are created dynamically during starting of print daemon, or must be created manually (in default by manual adding printer into system)???
Any idea??
