Since I have yet to find a cups driver for my Canon i960, I purchased TurboPrint, and, thankfully, it allows full function of my printer under Ubuntu. In XP, however, Gimp will not print photos forme, refusing to retain the page layout instructions I specify (4.6 results in a 4 x 6 image on letter sized paper).
I have posted about this on various fora, and, apparently, there are many who share my problem. If you have a solution, please post it so that I can continue to rave about all aspects of Gimp which I like very much.
