It seems that i ran into the problem you described.

I ran the command above, and most of the printers were restored.
Some not.

Steuereinheitenbeschreibung QVIRCD0001 nicht gefunden.
Einheitenbeschreibung PRT20 aufgrund von Fehlern nicht erstellt.
11 Objekt(e) zurückgespeichert; 4 nicht zurückgespeichert; 0
ausgeschlossen.

(Raw translation:

Controlunitdescription QVIRCD0001 not found.
Device description PRT20 not created because of errors.
11 Objects restored; 4 not restored; 0 excluded.)

So tried to restore QVIRCD0001 using RSTCFG. That worked.

Beschreibung für Steuereinheit QVIRCD0001 erstellt.
1 Objekte zurückgespeichert. 0 Objekte ausgeschlossen.

(Raw translation:

Description for Controlunit QVIRCD0001 created.
1 Object restored. 0 Objects exluced.)

After that, i tried restoring the printers again:

Beschreibung für Einheit PRT21 erstellt.
[ .. ]
15 Objekte zurückgespeichert. 0 Objekte ausgeschlossen.

(Raw translation:

Description for Unit PRT21 created.
15 Objects restored. 0 Objects excluded.)

I will see it this friday if this worked. Was my way to solve
this right?

Thanks in advance!
