Although I have already set up my cups system and have a default printer, it 
has nothing to do with gimp (but please correct me if I am wrong). I can not 
use the printer configured with cups in gimp. I don't get the connection 
between the "system printer" (as you mentioned) and gimp.
In gimp I must add a printer in the print plugin's dialog and specify the 
printer's vendor and model. There are many HP printers, but not the one have 
(710c). The question is still open.

Ps.: please stop top-posting.

Thanks!
