Q: How do I refresh Profile Manager's printers?

When I first installed Lion Server, I set up some print queues and configured them into Profile Manager's device groups. They pushed out and everything was cool. Except I decided I hate the names I gave the printers. Profile Manager is stuck with the original names.

 

I've renamed the queues, I deleted and re-created the queues.

 

When I go into Profile Manager and try to update the profiles. no go. The OLD queue names keep popping up. Ive deleted every payload in Profile Manager that touches the printers. Every time I try to add a new printer profile, the old queue names pop-up.

 

I've restarted profile manager several times to no avail.

 

I'm guessing somwhere there's a plist to delete or something to tell Profile Manager to re-read the configured printers.

 

Any thoughts???

 

Thanks

    This is the SOLUTION right here!  I was on the phone with senior advisors and we couldn't come up with a solution.  I Google'd around and found this --- it works! 

     

    And yes, this should be a few clicks like Steven says --- but alas, at least there's a solution!  Thanks, Steven!  =)

    Steven Major, Fix is still working on el capitan 10.11 and Server 5.04.

    Tried to delete a printer which had the wrong settings but no go until I found your fix.  Apple's poor quality for server products is still showing 4 years later.
