I recently purchased a new printer and drivers were not available for

My problem is that there are no 'Print' options on the GIMP menus. I
am running the version of GIMP from the Debian Etch repository. How
do I get Debian's GIMP to recognize the compiled from source
gutenprint 5.0.2 and allow me to print directly from GIMP.

Silly question but to you have gimp-print installed ?
Gutenprint is what used to be called gimp-print. So, yes, I have
gutenprint 5.0.2 installed from sources. No, I do not have the Debian
package 'gimp-print' (which is gutenprint 5.0.0) installed. I needed
the newer version to get the drivers for my printer. I just checked in
Lenny and Sid. Both have the gutenprint-doc package for gimp-print
5.0.2, but neither of them actually have the gimp-print 5.0.2 package.
So I have no choice but to compile from sources, which seems to leave me
without the print option on the menus.
Any help will be appreciated.

gimp-print is marked as conflict in sid/testing version of gimp so I
think gimp now provides gimp-print. Maybe you could try backporting
gimp from testing.

No other idea for the moment but hey, it's late.
On further searching, I see that, starting with Lenny, there is a
'gimp-gutenprint' package which is the gutenprint 5.0.2 package. So if
I hang in there until Lenny goes stable, I can use the Debian package
for gimp and gimp-gutenprint. That might get my menu options back.

where does that compile install the gutenprint binaries? It's possibly
in a different location than gimp expects thus it's not found. It may
be as simple as linking to the location gimp expects? That's just a
random guess.

If you mean all of the libs, they are in /usr/local/lib/. I tried
making a link to each of them from /usr/lib, but that didn't help. Does
anyone know where the Debian version of gimp 2.2 puts its various files?
