I can only report good results.  I'm using a current devel box 
(except I still use kernel *.535) which currently has gimp-2.0.4-4 
to print to a smb networked Epson PhotoStylus R200 printer.  I did 
remove the "-oraw" from gimp's "lp" command.

The one odd thing that I do see is that the /var/log/cups/access_log 
has two new entries every five seconds:

localhost - - [06/Sep/2004:01:10:39 -0500] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 75

and I don't know what that's all about.
