Question

Photoshop file will not print correct size, prints 8.5x11 every time

Has anyone had a Photoshop printing problem where the file only prints 8.5x11 no matter what paper size you select? I have un-installed and re-installed both Photoshop and the printer drivers & software.. nothing works. I can't find any information on the Adobe forums.. I mean I found people with the same problems, but no answers. Thought I'd check if any of you are also experiencing this problem. I'm working with Photoshop CC 2017 on OS X El Capitan (10.11.6). Currently I am trying to print to a Canon, however I also have problems printing to an Epson. The Epson printer will print the correct size paper, but the image will be cropped to 8.5x11. **Only happens when trying to print out of Photoshop... any other program will print perfectly fine**

Any help would be much appreciated! Please advise if more info is needed to help figure out this problem

Which Epson and Canon printers are you using? Also could you post a screenshot of Photoshop Print Window (please expand the print window to show all of the controls).

Thanks

You're definitely doing it right. I have 2 things to try:

- Make a custom paper size rather than using one of the presets (Go to the paper size popup menu and scroll to the bottom and select Manage Custom Sizes)

- Try the Epson Plugin (Epson Print Layout - Epson ). It will appear in the File/Automate/ menu.

Please try both and let me know how it goes, these will help me figure out where it's failing.

Thanks
