Printer sharing problem

I have a iMac with OS X 10.5.5 and connected a HP C6280
via USB and shared it. I used Bonjour to on my windows Vista box with the drivers loaded to connect and received a error that the computer did not have the permissions to do that. I down loaded Print theropy and it corrected some permissions but came up with a lot of missing files. Listed below. It was suggested for mr to down load the CUPs file and install. Is this something I can do as my experience is limited but if there are directions I can attempt to perform the functions. Thanks

Starting permission verification and repair...

The permissions for the directory /private/var/spool/cups/cache/rss are incorrect!
They are drwxrwxr-x, but should be drwxr-xr-x

Recreating symbolic links...
Done.


Verification complete.

4869 files examined. 1 permission problem was found and repaired. It is recommended that you verify the permissions again to make sure the values are correct.

25 missing files/directories found during the verification process. They may be responsible for certain printing problems. Print Therapy cannot replace these items. Please refer to the log file for a list of the missing files/directories. You may need to reinstall OS X to resolve your printing issues. Certain files and directories are deleted when using the Reset Printing System option. These files and directories, if required, will be recreated during normal printing.
