In the ...ancient... days you would use the [print$] share for point-and-click 
print driver installation for windows. Something like:

[print$]
         path = /var/lib/samba/drivers
         browseable = yes
         write list = @adm root
         guest ok = yes
         inherit permissions = yes

I don't know what is current, but this qualified as "deep down somewhere", or 
at least "from days gone by". Maybe it will point you in the right direction.
