On which Linux distribution? Can you try a newer version of GIMP?

You probably have to tell the software that you have 4x6 inch paper;
exactly how you do that may vary based on the exact printer software
you use (and whether you're actallly using Linux, or some other system
such as FreeBSD, OpenSolaris, or even OS X).

You may also need to take the 8.5x11 paper try out of the printer
before it will try other sized paper.

Finally, make sure the Ignore Page Margins options is checked in gimp's
print options (if it's there) so that giMP knows it can print right ot
the edge of the paper, and doesn't need to choose a larger paper size.
