Is the printer in CUPS built using foomatic DB or is it an acutal PPD?

> I have attempted to install cups drivers for Windows x64 because the coming wave of this OS (Win7-64) is inevitable.  I used this how-to (nice): http://blog.encomiabile.it/2010/02/17/samba-cups-and-windows-32-64-bit-drivers
> however I cannot get it to work.  The drivers install and download but windows always complains cannot find a driver for fooprinter. I have attempted to upload drivers from windows, but cannot find a PS driver to upload.  It does not seem to be in MS Win7.
