how to print letter size with Photo Paper Pro Premium Matte (PM-101)

Hi, I can't figure out how to print letter size (8.5x11) with Canon's Photo Paper Pro Premium Matte. The only options I am given with Photoshop and Print Studio Pro are:

US Letter (Art Paper Margin 30)

A4 (Art Paper Margin 30)

A3 (Art Paper Margin 30)

A3+ (Art Paper Margin 30)

I've tried using the custom size feature in the print driver but when I press ok it tells me only the above are available. I can print letter size easily with other papers. Thanks.

First off, why are you using the Canon plug-ins if you are using PS? Just use PS. There is nothing the plug-ins do that you can't do for yourself in PS.

But maybe there is a restriction in the profile for that paper. Assuming you have everything else set correctly. Canon does this on some papers.

A4 is actually 8.3 x 11.7 inches which is roughly letter size.

Oh, BTW, the 30 is lead in margins and is in mm.

On the PS print screen there is a place to center the picture. It defaults to top of the page I believe. Set to whatever you want.
