Legitimate yes, official no. To summarise, gimpforums.com owner let the forum die, months later came back with an old backup copy, No permissions for moderators to control spam. So Ofnuts set up this new forum where he is the owner.
Just had a look at it, very sad, full of spam not a place I would consider posting to anyway.

I suspect not for the majority of users. There are some with problems. If you take 'buntu and Mint as debian based, then you might get some info. This one for example https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=179888
If you want to post a bug report that Gimp is not working with your printer, the place is
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/issues/
Do not be surprised if you get referred back to debian or Canon.

... so the driver seems to think everything is fine.
Yes, I can get the equivalent, but are you sure Gimp is printing there. I am keeping things simple these days but I have in the past used different CUPS printers with the same physical printer eg. one for office printing and one for graphics printing. Do you have a PDF printer set up? Can Gimp print (not export but print) to PDF? Might prove something?
If you post a bug be sure to include all details, Gimp version, USB/Network/wireless printing
I use a flatpak Gimp 2.10.8, that is not going print using gutenprint plugin. So I either use Gimp 2.8 or my old Gimp 2.9 appimage for that.
Sorry I cannot be more help.
