[Samba] Samba and CUPS

I have Samba version 2.2.7a and CUPS version 1.1.15.

I have been unable to successfully use the 'cupsaddsmb' utility.
Any time I execute this utility, I get the following error:

Warning - No PPD file found for 'printer_name'!

The printer is question has been configured in CUPS and it is visible when 
browsing from a Windows client.

Where is it looking for these PPD files? Is it /etc/cups/ppd? Could it be 
that it does not recognize the PPD files for some reason?

Also, could someone further develop

Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you.
