I believe a lot depends on which version of Gimp one uses so an indication of the operating system could be helpful. I am unfortunate in that I haven't yet got Gimp 2.4.1 installed as there is nothing yet for non-techies using Ubuntu. However, according to the image in Akkana Peck's book it looks the same as in earlier versions of Gimp as does the page in Gimp 2.4 rc3. > > I assume that the print dialog in 2.4 is a placeholder for soemthing else > but I don't know what. Should I be using Gutenprint now? I believe that printing in Gimp is via a plugin which on Linux systems is Gutenprint.
