The bottom line is do not use Gimp for printing. Save your work as a Gimp .xcf file but when complete Export the image as a .png or a .tif

Then, do what you are already doing and use some other application for printing, IrfanView or personally I like XnViewMP. Up to you.

There was a recent post using Win10 + Epson where Gimp used Print-to-the-Microsoft PDF printer then the Win10 default image viewer uses that & prints to Epson.

You can correctly set up a paper size in the MS PDF printer.

Yes. Dual-booting Windows 10 and Windows 7. Problems don't appear to be specific to any version of Windows. Thanks for the suggestions!
