I did the test : it works, it does, in fact, with any of the four options.

So my problem is solved as far as image printing is concerned. However, 
for some reason that I don't understand, this driver still behaves 
strangely in printing sheets from LibreOffice Calc: only part of the 
sheet is being printed and it goes up to paper size in one direction... 
just as it acted before.

For the time being, I have found a way to get through this: I have 
installed two 'printers' using the same hardware, one uses 'hpcups 
3.14.3', the other uses 'CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.10-pre2' ; I select the 
first one for LibreOffice Calc and texts and it works perfectly for that 
purpose ; I select the second one for image printing since it offers a 
lot more many options and gives good photographs on Epson 'glossy' paper.

As for my earlier problem printing images with the Gutenprint driver, I 
should have read the 'README file !

Thanks for your help
