Trying to have windows XP clients download drivers automatically.

# cupsaddsmb -U root -v -a
Password for root required to access /var/run/cups/cups.sock via SAMBA:
Running command: smbclient ///var/run/cups/cups.sock/print$ -N -A /var/spool/cups/tmp/466b6dafae0f7 -c 'mkdir W32X86;put /var/spool/cups/tmp/466b6daa7e3c0 W32X86/MFC420CN.ppd;put /usr/share/cups/drivers/ps5ui.dll W32X86/ps5ui.dll;put /usr/share/cups/drivers/pscript.hlp W32X86/pscript.hlp;put /usr/share/cups/drivers/pscript.ntf W32X86/pscript.ntf;put /usr/share/cups/drivers/pscript5.dll W32X86/pscript5.dll'

This continues to cycle until I kill the command.
I really need some help to understand what is causing this error.
I am able to print using CUPS but the drivers are not being downloaded or recognized on the windows client logged into SAMBA.
