Printed photo does not match the final photo display.

[D Scheid]

After creating and coloring a 4x6 inch work area, I pasted a smaller photo in the center of the page.  After printing, the result had moved the picture off center to the left (see photo A).  This occurred using both Affinity Photo 1 and 2.  After trying several different ways of assembling the photo, I decided to try the same process using another program.  Using Adobe Photoshop Elements 2019, I assembled the same photo and printed it with the results shown (see photo B).  This photo matched the displayed photo as expected.  I am using a Cannon Pro-100 printer in both cases.  The software versions of Affinity Photo were 1.8.5.703 for version 1 and 2.5.7 for version 2 with both running on a Windows 10 machine.

@D Scheid Welcome to the forums.

It's not something I can replicate using Photo V2 (2.5.7) on Windows 11 to any of our printers.

Is your Document setup the same as your intended paper size?

When you use File > Print does the preview look correct and are you adjusting any of the options?

Have you tried enabling Rasterize the entire page under Rasterization to see if that resolves it for you?
