I fresh installed Win 7-64 on a new SDD along with Epson 4800 Win7 drivers and have Qimage up and running recognizing printer.
My XP system in still on old HDD and if needed can boot up and/or copy files from it to new SDD.
All my data files (images, etc.) are on third HDD.

My question is what files from my prior XP Qimage install can I transfer over to get my print history, printer driver settings, cut outs, etc and what needs to be done manually (print driver settings perhaps)
Anything that is auto generated (thumbs) I don't want to transfer but anything that is custom settings that affect print job or print job history I do.
Thanks.

I found this which probably answers my Q's:  http://ddisoftware.com/tech/qimage-ultimate/migrate-qi-stuidio-jobs-list-to-qu/

It is likely that any printer setups that you made in XP will no longer work because you have a new printer driver for W 7  64.

I went through this recently & am still working out a few issues. I was able to transfer my saved Jobs, but had to rebuild them one by one to reload the custom Epson/paper ICC profile and reset the page sizes, print quality, etc. Also had to relink the thumbnails. What helped was keeping my original XP installation on my old machine (disconnected from internet and network) and running it concurrently with the new machine's installation to verify each job's settings.

I have Qimage set up now with same page size, same driver settings, profile, etc.

Manually copying settings that are in print driver is what I had to do.

I have copied the job history files over and can see them, but don't have the time to update them.
