Havent tried that yet, not even under Linux.

Do you have a test-script which I could throw onto my Windows machine to 
see if that works?

If you install rubygnome with the window installer, you can try the 
sample at

C:\ruby\samples\ruby-gnome2\gnomeprint &
C:\ruby\samples\ruby-gnome2\gnomeprintui

[assume you install at the default location]

I cannot run the sample, but not sure others ppl can run it or not. I 
tried to compiled the ruby gnomeprint with the mingw but never success 
to run it. So, I wonder the gnomeprint is working or not in windows box.

libgnomeprint and libgnomeprintui are deprecated. Use cairo
and GtkPrint* instead.

rcairo, the Ruby bindings of cairo, provides binary package
for Windows as gem. GtkPrint* will be supported in the next
Ruby/GTK2 release.
