I have encountered a persistent problem with printing in the
Gimp. I have encountered the problem both in Hoary and now in
Breezy milestone 3. I have both an HP Photsmart 1000 and an HP
Officejet all-in-one 7300 hooked up, both of which will print with Open
Office and other programs, and the 7300 will scan with The Gimp and
XSane, but when you ask either to print in The Gimp, the best you get
is an endless series of pages spit out with one line of text code
across the top until the job is killed and the machine is turned
off. When I discovered that the 7300 would scan with Xsane and
The Gimp, I was especially keen to print some of the photos I had
scanned, and I found finally that G-Eyes would print them, but there
has to be a solution to making The Gimp play nice with the printers
too. Any suggestions? My machine is a Celeron 2.8 gig with
512meg of Ram and my Linux on its own 150gig HD and Win2000 on another
60gig. I have about three flavors of Linux at one time booting
from my Grub menu, in case I get bored. Breezy is my main man at
the moment, as long as it works. Hoary is fall-back. They all
share my /home partition. Anything else I should include? <br>
