Photoshop greeting card image not printing aligned

Image not aligned with side on 7x10 greeting card when printing from Adobe Photoshop on my MacBook Air to a Canon Pixma Pro-200s printer. No alignment issues when printing on my cheap Canon Pixma 3620, or when using Canon Professional layout &Print software. 

Anyone know why I get this problem using Photoshop? I really would prefer to print directly from Photoshop instead of having to open a separate program after editing. I'm setting the correct ICC and paper size on both my Photoshop and printer.

This is not a Photoshop issue. It appears that you are using wrong paper for this type of printing and the printer is warping it during printing process.

 

Make sure the paper size guides on the printer cover and output tray are adjusted correctly.

 

Change the paper and print profile to recommended by the manufacturer. Or simply try thicker paper with the same settings.

    This issue only happens when printing from photoshop. I resolved it by letting canon control the the color. Why allowing photoshop to handle the color makes the image warp is weird. I was using canon matte photo paper with the correct icc chosen and I went over all the settings many times and watched lots of tutorials for the printer and for photoshop to make sure I was doing this correctly.

    I've moved this from the Using the Community forum (which is the forum for issues using the forums) to the Photoshop forum so that proper help can be offered.
