The problem is from Gimp, all other apps seems fine. What I have found is that I always have to reselect and save the printer settings. I also have to print the same item twice. On first time print it pulls the paper in, and just runs the paper through, then pulls another sheet in and just stops. Checking the que, it shows no jobs. Choose print again, and it then prints the picture. -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
