Default Why a duplicate printer driver install?

I run Windows XP SP2 and a Canon iP3000 printer. Ive noticed the
following behaviour with other printers as well.

In windows\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86 there are two subdirectories;
'3' and 'canonip300082f7'. These directories appear to hold exactly the
same 15mb of content. Does anyone know why there are two?
