Hi Perry & Tracy,

this is a known bug, see
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=505123 .

As far as I know there is a patch which just needs to be
applied; see my comment #37 in that thread.

For now a workaround would be to export the image
as png or pdf and print it with another application,
(for instance the Windows photo viewer) in 4x6.

Kind regards,

Sven
