Thanks for all the info. Turns out it was because I chose the correct
printer during install but with the GIMP-EN tag. So during yet another
reinstall, I chose the other BJC-3000 and it prints the correct size now. I
guess GIMP is buggy or something, I don't know. So if anyone else
experiences this oddity, remember try not to use the GIMP enabled
drivers/filters/whatever it is.
