[wtf] printing size...

so, i have this Adobe Photoshop 3 LE .jpg document i want
to print, with six 5x5cm squares on it... i save the file,
open it on Mac OS X (because my printer isn't supported
under OS 9) and try to print it. but the squares are 7x7cm
when printed. so i try to shrink the size with Photoshop and
print it again, but the squares are 7x7cm again (even
with the image shrunk) - the exact same size. so i try to
print it with another OS X app (Quicktime)... and i don't
understand how, but i ended up with two sheets printed: one
sheet with 4x4cm squares, and one with 0.8x0.8cm squares.
o_O

i don't know what's going on here but it's annoying.

check all different resolutions [printer, pixels/inches,
etc]

check that there are no 'scale to fit' options enabled.
