With the x86-64 bit setup, ekplp (EPSON Inkjet Printer #1) cannot be selected and the printer cannot be registered.

When Photo Image Print System Lite is used with a x86-64 bit setup, the CUPS installation destination is different from that of the 32 bit version so CUPS printers cannot be registered.

Therefore to use Photo Image Print System Lite with the x86-64 bit setup, it is first necessary to create a symbolic link using the following procedure.

[Solution]
Execute the following commands with root authority to create a symbolic link in /usr/lib64/cups/.
After creating the symbolic link, be sure to restart CUPS.

# cd /usr/lib64/cups
# ln -s /usr/lib/cups/backend/ekplp backend/ekplp
# ln -s /usr/lib/cups/filter/pipstoprinter filter/pipstoprinter
# ln -s /usr/lib/cups/filter/rastertopips filter/rastertopips

We have confirmed that this problem occurs with the following setup.

[Relevant driver]
Photo Image Print System Lite 1.0.0-1 CUPS Version

[Relevant distribution]
- SUSE LINUX 10.1 (x86-64 bit)
