Duplicating print queues

Greetings, all. I have a G40 production box running
AIX 4.3.2 and a J50 test box running 4.3.3. I need to
duplicate the print queues and devices on the test
box, so I copied /etc/qconfig and the contents of
/var/spool and all subdirs to the test box. I can
list the queues and they all show 'ready' until I
print to one, then it goes down. I have stopped and
restarted the qdaemon susbystem (all printers are
network printers). What have I missed?

This may be a clue. The SMIT 'Add a Print Queue'
function on the production box offers nine choices,
including local, hpjetdirect, IBMNetPrinter, etc.,
while the test box offers only two choices:
user-defined and remote.

Thanks.
