It would seem I spoke to soon, printer and Gimp once again not working
together.
What are your printer, what configuration are you using (which filter, etc.)??
I'm surprised no one has mentioned the Gentoo Printing Guide yet. It
worked perfectly last time I used it, tho I don't have a printer ATM so
will eventually have another chance to test it. =8^)

As far as further configuration, I use KDE, and once I told it I was using
cups and made sure cups was running, it was actually quite easy to let
the KDE printing config stuff do the rest. All told, it was /much/ easier
than I had expected, particularly given the horror stories I've read over
the years.
The printer is setup fine, CUPS is running, and a great test page is
produced.
The problem is from Gimp, all other apps seems fine. What I have found
is that I always have to reselect and save the printer settings.
I also have to print the same item twice.
On first time print it pulls the paper in, and just runs the paper
through, then pulls another sheet in and just stops. Checking the que,
it shows no jobs.
Choose print again, and it then prints the picture.
