I highly encourage you to report this problem on the gimp-devel list.
2.3 is a development branch, and they are rapidly working towards
getting 2.4 finalized. This should be brought to their attention soon.
I'm using 2.3.10 myself, and have not seen the problem - although that
is probably because I don't have a colour printer and so never print
anything from the Gimp! (-;
