I don't know of any aoutomatism here, but what we currently do is as
follows:
As the users usually log in to their Win boxes at most once a day, we
installed
a login script that imports all the printers the user(s) have installed
from the
CUPS server. Running this script may take a while, but the WInxx users
need not
think about modified printers.
