Funny thing is, that my printer (HP 3820) is listed OK in the printer-field, but not in the field for output. When I tried your advice, I picked another HP printer, printed OK but in a very grainy mode, far from what I'm used to.
Now, to print some photos for my X-mas cards I have to use Open Office, import the photos there, and then print. Works fine. But there must be some bug in GIMP ? Thanks again, Kaj Haulrich. -- ** Sent from a 100 % Microsoft-free computer **
