I have my printer drivers installed in CUPS and everything else uses those by selecting printer Oj for the Officejet and Lj for the Laserjet. Gimp seems to send postscript to the printer even though I selected one of my CUPS printers, that's a bit brain dead. The Gimp doesn't seem to have drivers for my (pretty standard) HP printers.
What printers? (model numbers please) and which distro? Printing can be "fun" sometimes so there is an element of stabbing in the dark with the info you gave us so far :)
Slackware 10.1 with CUPS.
Printers are an HP7310 and an HP1060 (I think). I have the HPLIP drivers installed for the printers and they work well in general. I can print with no problems from firefox for example, it's just that I'm having trouble getting these .GIF and .JPG files to print so they look sensible on an A4 sheet of paper.
