Hi Erik - 
those features are now maintained in the external "gutenprint" (formerly 
"gimp-print" ) project;. Please search you r distro packages for gutenprint
gimp related packages, and the printing plgu-in with the itnerface you are 
used to (and the features you are needing) should become available.
