I'm not certain what you mean. If I click page setup in Gimp, the margins are 0.25"all the way around.
My Epson printer has a "hidden" margin of .26 (by hidden, I mean that it's factored into the print to avoid printing on the edges of the paper. The only thing that I can do to resolve that margin is check the toggle "Ignore edge margins", in order to print a real size 8 x 10 image. Otherwise, my 8 x 10 is actually 7.5 by 9.75'ish.
So, when using GIMP, make sure your printer isn't preventing you from using the as much of the paper you wish to, that is, if it allows you to turn off the edge margins. Different printer brands have different settings or lack certain settings.
