You should read the man page of "cupsaddsmb". It would tell you that
the preparation to be completed *before* running the command consists,
amongst other things, to place the Windows driver files into the
"/usr/share/cups/drivers/" repository..... (Unfortunately the license
prohibits the free re-distribution of the Adobe driver files.)

From any Windows 2K/XP workstation that shares a PostScript printer....
It will have a share named "print$" where it offeres driver files for
"Point'n'Print" installations. Try this:
smbclient -U windowsusername //windowshostname/print\$
cd w32x86
cd 2
mget ADOBEPS*.*
Another option is to go to the Adobe website and search for their
PostScript driver.
