 Yes, but now I remember why I never got to install sketch. It's a mess to
 get to work!

  Yup. Been there, done that.

  Check out xfig (http://www.xfig.org). A pleasure to install and use,
especially for those of us who used the DOS products: DrawPerfect and
Presentations.

 what version gimp are you using?  may be a problem in an older version.

Rebecca,

  I'm running 1.0.4. I do get the dialog box and I can specify printer (or
file), orientation, and paper size. I have no choices for media type or
media source, and I set scaling to 100% (the default).

  Now, when I try it again, I'm stymied by another problem. The printer
tells me to load plain paper in tray 1 (for single-sheet feeding), so I do
it. It then sits for a while and tells me to remove the media in tray 1!

  Something is really screwy here.

Thanks,

Rich
