Install 32bit drivers on 64bit Linux Lite 3.x - Valtam - 01-21-2017

IMPORTANT: Only resort to this method if there are no 64bit hardware drivers for your peripheral.

For: Printers, Scanners, Webcams, Game controllers etc.

Peripherals - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral

Scenario:

You have a label printer, the hardware vendor only provides 32bit drivers but you are using Linux Lite 3.x 64bit.

Code:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

Code:
sudo apt-get update

Code:
sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libstdc++6:i386

Install your hardware vendor 32bit debian packages.

Done.
