I'm using Slackware 7.1 with Gimp 1.1.28 and I can print fine with my
BJC 250.
However I setup system print services with the program apsfilter
(www.apsfilter.org).  I don't know what effect this may have on printing
and gimp (and I don't know if Mandrake uses a BSD-like print setup.),
but you may want to try apsfilter.  

Hope this provides some help.  (and I'm sorry if it doesn't)

I don t know if it will help but I had the same effect when choosing the 
effective driver for an hp but did not select the print as ghoscript option
as i write this i realise there isn t such options anymore with "cups inside"
it was for mandrake 71
I had not that kind of trouble with cups
maybe you should try the mandrake user forum and the muo site which have some 
good tutorials on cups

Printing to an older Canon

2000-12-03 Thread Dennis Kent

Recently I upgraded to Mandrake 7.2 and GIMP 1.1.29. 
Everything is fine except that I can't print to my
Canon BJC 610.  There are no drivers in CUPS or
Gimp-Print for any Canons older than BJC 1000.  Has
anybody had any experience with this?  It prints a
gimp-print header with some settings and then pages
and pages full of s8W-! .  I can clear the print queue
and power the printer on and off a couple of times and
they still keep coming.

Anyone have any ideas?
