The settings can be copied, the plugins will still need to be installed.
IMHO do the settings first.
Locate the Configuration folder
S There is a button in Preferences Miscellaneous that opens the folder.
LEAVE IT OPEN
shut down Calibre.
Copy the contents of the folder to the New Machine.
Start the New Calibre (you might need to Switch Libraries if the same (path and) name was not used)
and install the plugins as normal (the old settings should all be in effect)
