I guess when you say "map" you mean a particular kind of image as used
in some specific application (game), not just an image that happens to
show a (cartographic) map? But others might wonder why an image
showing a map would be any different than, say, an image showing a cat
and a dog.... But anyway, I hope you realize that to GIMP it is quite
irrelevant what the image is used for.

Anyway, about printing: Yes, printing on Windows is known to be
somewhat broken both in GIMP 2.2 (where the printing code was in a
GIMP plug-in) and in GTK+ 2.10 and 2.12 (which is what GIMP 2.4 uses).
It won't be fixed magically by itself, and nobody with the necessary
skills and time seems to be particularly interested (me included).

So, please print images from some other application.
