Antonio I print pictures on my HP LJ6P good since I installed the gimp1.2-print package. You might have good luck with ijsgimpprint - Inkjet Server - Ghostscript driver for Gimp-Print This package contains the ijsgimpprint binary which provides Ghostscript with a Gimp-Print driver, including all printers supported by Gimp-Print. . This is Gimp-Print version 4.2.5, a stable release in the 4.2 line. . Gimp-Print is the print facility for the Gimp, and in addition a suite of drivers that may be used with common UNIX spooling systems using GhostScript or CUPS. These drivers provide printing quality for UNIX/Linux on a par with proprietary vendor-supplied drivers in many cases, and can be used for many of the most demanding printing tasks. Happy Holidays!
