It appears to be unrelated to TIFF images. Instead, GIMP can't print images larger than 32767 pixels on a side (presumably signed 16-bit, which is the coordinate system that PostScript uses). I don't know whether ImageMagick can do this; it requires some careful programming that probably isn't seen as very widely applicable. The most common uses of TIFF I know of are from the professional graphic design and imaging worlds, because TIFF was better for interchange in the 1980s and 1990s than most other formats. These days PNG is often better. But having said that, you could open any format image and GIMP still couldn't print it if it was bigger than 32767 pixels on any side. Scale the image down before printing, maybe?
