Photoshop printing loves 'Center'. Can I change that?
I am printing from Photoshop 2026. Whenever I select 'scale to fit print media', I end up with the image centered on the paper. Even if I uncheck the 'Center' checkbox and stick in '0' for the left position, the result is centered. Further, if I click 'Done' instead of 'Print' and then ask for File/Print again, the 'Center' checkbox is checked, again.
I suspect that if I resized the image to the desired size and then stopped checking 'scale to fit', that this problem would go away, but I don't want to resample and then save, or not save and then do the whole business again if I need to print another. Am I just stuck?

There is no way to have 'fill' checked and avoid centering.
The next best thing to do turns out to be:
- Note the scale percentage shown when you have fill checked.
- Uncheck fill
- Provide that number by hand in the scale box
Now you can position your image as you like.
