Re: [Gimp-user] Printing Alignment

[Richard <strata_ranger hotmail com>]

This is a longstanding, known issue with no fix in sight :(

More specifically, the print offsets DO work but there is a seemingly 10:1 ratio between the specified value 
and what you actually get on paper (e.g. 1" offset = 0.1" on paper).


The only workaround is to first set your image to the DPI you want to print at, then manually pad out your 
image canvas by the desired distance.

Subject: [Gimp-user] Printing Alignment

I've been having this problem for ages. When I position an image in the print
setup, it always ends up printing in the top left corner. I can reposition the
image anywhere on the page, but it never prints that way.

What I'm trying to do is print out an image, if I need to resize or edit it, I
want to reuse the paper and print the new size in a different spot on the page.
Currently, I have to flip the page and turn it over to print on the corners (I
only get 4 prints out of a page that way). It would be nice to just drop the
image next to the previous one.
