[STR New]

The cupsaddsmb man page (http://cups.org/doc-1.2/man-cupsaddsmb.html) says
"The base driver for Windows 2000 and higher is the Microsoft PostScript
driver, which is available on any system running Windows 2000 or higher in
the %WINDOWS%\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\DRIVERS\W32X86\3 folder."
This directory is empty on Windows XP (I'm using %WINDIR% not %WINDOWS%).
If you try to install them using the add printer drivers dialog, there
appears to be no such driver available. I don't see how I'm supposed to
get them.
