BTW, that is not completely and always true. It depends on 
the way the Windows printer driver is installed, and which 
one. It is always true for "use client driver = yes" in 
smb.conf

It is *not* true if the you prepared the driver download to
Windows clients on the Samba side with "cupsaddsmb". It is
also not true if the Windows clients use the CUPS/ESP IPP
client to send their jobs. In these cases the clients send
PostScript to CUPS -- but the target printer may well be PCL, 
ESC/P or whatever.
