gimp printing again.

I cannot find or figure out how to properly configure Gimp to get a
photo to print out. It was working once upon a time in FC6, but now it
doesn't. I tried adding the gutenprint rpm, and that crashed the system
(I guess because I had both gutenprint and gimp-print installed). I
uninstalled all the gimp stuff, the gutenprint and the xsane for gimp,
rebooted just to be sure, then reinstalled gimp, gimp extensions, xsane
and gutenprint. No joy. I get the postscript header, and a bunch of
blank pages before I cancel the print job. And the print job is
difficult to cancel, taking minuted before the print status gui updates
and shows it canceled.
I am running FC6 fully updated, with the gimp from the add-remove
software menu. My printer is an HP Photosmart 1215. The printer works
from all other applications I have tried (OO, Firefox, and Evolution
among others).
The system message log only says:

If I look at the plugin directories, I see no entry for gutenprint, nor
is there any entry for gutenprint in the gui for GIMP plugin management.
In the /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins directory there is a "print" module.
And here is the contents of printrc:
]$ cat .printrc
cat: .printrc: No such file or directory
[lesh at school .gimp-2.2]$ cat printrc

There are no ppd files in my installation according to the gimp gui for
printer setup. The printer command window shows:
lp -s -dPHOTOSMART_1215 -oraw
So, I'm at a complete loss. I think I have looked at every thing I
could, tried finding information in the Gimp manual, looked up numerous
references on line via google, and I cannot fathom what to do. I guess
I'm just stupid. Please educate this old fool.
