Print any image to a file (just for better debugging); Otherwise gs, acting as a
print-filter quits with an error-message.

For my example-image a ps-file with the header attached below [1] is created. As
I found out the problem is the german decimal-separator ',' in the 'scale'-line.
It should be a '.'. 

If you do the above steps with LANG=C, the 'scale'-line uses '.' by default.

You might wonder, why I used Gimp-Print 4.3.3. This was the one supplied with my
distro and has worked well with gimp 1.4.x. The problem above occurs with the
recent stable Gimp-Print 4.2.6, too.
