If you want to use cp you will have to mount the filesystem. The regular
mount command will do this.  The filesystem type you want is called cifs.
The man page for the requisite options is here
man mount.cifs
A typical command would look like
mount -t cifs //server/share /mnt --verbose -o user=username
