I'm not answering your question directly, because to do so, I'd need to see your CUPS configuration.
That aside, have you considered setting up your Windows Server with a LPD or an IPP queue for the printer?
If you can, avoid SMB printing -- for countless reasons. God knows I do so even for Windows clients. Microsoft's own NT reliability studies show the NT spooler is the reason why NT crashes/hangs 8% of the time.
I second that. Many months ago I finally enabled LPD printing on the windows print server an linux to windows printing has been much simpler and less trouble ever since. SMB printing was always a problem and it required exposing a windows password.
