Why won't preview print the actual size of the photo?

Why can't I print directly from Photoshop instead of having to print through preview? I believe I've checked the proper settings in preview preference but it keeps scaling my photos.

IMAC, Mac OS X (10.6.4), 3.06 GHz Intel

Yes, pressing the tab button works, as i discovered independently by asking a nearby teenager. He explained to me that pressing the "Tab" button forces the numbers that you type into the scale box to "take," by advancing to the next field in the dialog box. Evidently there are other programs that he uses that also require this technique. It still looks like a bug to me, but at least we can now do what we want.
