Does that mean that the image print size is 8"x 10" What shows in Image -> Print Size This my example.

Is that the Gimp Print dialogue That is File -> Print then Image Settings. There was a problem with the Windows little preview window being blank, but I think that was fixed. Are you using the latest Gimp 2.10.38 ?
EDIT: If using Windows 11, that might be the problem. Some reports along the lines of: In Windows 11 22H2, Microsoft has replaced the legacy Print Dialog for all classic (win32) apps. Looking at the Gimp 2.10 Windows printing plugins then file-print Print the image using the GTK+ Print API and it probably using the Gimp 32 bit section. But I do knot know since I do not have a Win11 machine.

A bit more information on Image size and resolution needed to give a sensible reply.

Truthfully, Windows Gimp print plugin is old and not so good. Often it is better to use something else to print. LibreOffice or XnViewMP for example.
