I use UndercoverXP for printing.
Depending on your printer, there may not be enough room to print the entire cover properly on a letter size page.
This is a built-in problem with the printer;it's setting minimum margins and the software cannot overcome it - except that UndercoverXP will offer to best fit the cover to the page.
My Canon printers have this problem, but my HP doesn't.
You could also buy a pack of legal size paper (don't know what the metric equivalent is)and use that for covers.

UnderXP has a preview setting that shows (or warns) you that the image is outside the printable area.
If it's outside the area, it offers you the choice to force it inside - which usually means the cover is slightly short in the vertical dimension.
Alternatively, if you want the exact, correct size, change the printer setting to 'Legal' and recheck the preview.
If it now shows that it is within the printable area, then that's the size it will need.

...Or you could just do the job with GIMP...it seems to be super-accurate when printing, and it is free.
