I would use the Gimp default 300 ppi US letter template. You might be able to get away with less (ppi), all depends on the graphic.
A little bit here: http://resources.printhandbook.com/pages...inting.php
edit: I do not think you have got idea of the printer dpi resolution. My inkjet has (had to look it up) Maximum native print resolution 6,000x1,200dpi That does not mean that I would use that setting for a new image. For a photograph on good quality photo paper I use 300 ppi. For printing on other paper, I might still use 300 ppi but really a bit of a waste of ink.
And the "dots" are individual droplets of ink, so the color or the corresponding cartridge. One pixel in your image is actually rendered by a pattern of individual color dots, so pixels and dots are different things.
