[cups.general] CUPS looking for "hpcups" in wrong directory

Those two files were in "/usr/lib/cups/filter". But why are they there
instead of "/usr/lib64/cups/filter"? It is a 64 bit machine. Or does it
matter?

Anyway, so i went ahead and created links to hpcups and hpcupsfax in
"/usr/lib/cups/filter" and restarted cups. The filter problem goes away,
but I still can't print. Here's the output from the error_log file when
I try to print a testpage"
