How do I migrate a Win Print Server 2003 and create it on a Server 2008?

I presently have a Windows Server 2003 that is our company print server. It is beginning to have issues and I recently just created a new Win 2008 Standard server. Without disrupting the organization too much I want to retire the 2003 server and use the 2008 serverver. Is there a way to import those printers that are presently on the 2003 box and move them to the 2008 box with little down time.

not that i am aware of..plus to minimise workstation issues you really want the server name and printer shares to be the same.
as they will be connected to by \\servername\printer
