Linux - Using a 32 bit printer driver - Xerox Phaser 6125n

This problem again.  On my bleeding-edge development machine, the printer stopped working, and I worked for hours on it.  My stable machine had no problems and I was using that.

This worked

Got this 32-bit driver working on Ubuntu 12.04 through 16.04 by adding the 32-bit support: sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 libcupsimage2:i386 Printer uses ART EX as the standard page description language

Remove the old driver and reinstall after this.  I used the KDE printer menu to set up the printer.  The cups web interface has gone nuts again.
