Thanks for that, Mark. I had to install gimp-gutenprint and it works for me. 
I've only done a couple of prints but it's made a good job of both of them 
first time.

When I print, I first use Gimp to scale at 300dpi then crop to exactly fit the 
paper I'm using. Then I just click the "Use original image size" button in 
gutenprint and it fits.
