For printer migration I can agree about <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/WindowsServer2003/techinfo/overview/printmigrator3.1.mspx" rel="nofollow">microsoft print migrator</a> - it's the most easiest way. For share migration we use <a href="http://www.scriptlogic.com/products/securecopy" rel="nofollow">secure copy</a>. It's a gui tool with intuitive interface, that keeps all security information, permissions, shares and share permissions intact during migration. More to this it uses multithreaded mechanism of copying that's very useful in big data amounts migration. It’s a bit complicated.

If a server name has changed then the file server migration kit may come in handy - this uses dfs to enable the old server name to be used see http://tinyurl.com/yrdfkq for a good article on using it.
