Hi! I am in the process of reprinting some of my covers using A4 paper, but I wanted to do some test prints before doing so, using both borderless printing and not borderless printing options. I am printing with a Canon TS5120 on Photoshop CC 2020. When using borderless printing, I notice the cover fits quite well, but looks smaller than what it's supposed to be, with parts of the case still visible in the front, back, and spine. When I print without using borderless printing, the cover fits the case (although oversized) and has ripples even after I fixed the slight imperfections of my cuts. (Reference photos are provided) The cover in question is a retail cover from Pokemon Sapphire, which I checked in Photoshop to have perfect 300 DPI and the 10.867 x 4.567 size. Is this an issue with my printer, Photoshop, or something else? I don't want to print the colored cover until I know I can get it perfect of course. One thing I want to note before hand is that I do have experience with Photoshop, but not with printing extremely accurately.

(Had to upload to imgur because of forum issues. I can provide higher quality photos if necessary)

Tha borderless looks normal but if you want you can print at 101% scale, the option is somewhere in the page set-up of your printer.

Border print looks like you have fit to page option on.
This automaticly stretches the image to cover as much of the paper as possible, so turn that of and make sure scaling is at 100% (or 101%).

Yup! I fixed the issue with the border print and it looks perfect now!  Thanks for the help!
