I have a similar driver here to have a look for you; a Canon Pro 9000 II

It does the same thing in this driver, but it appears that it forces a change of feed  Front Tray. It also wants to force a change (as you said) to Art Letter (margin 35)
It seems that this change is a*size* change and not a paper change.
You should notice that they do not even offer an 8.5 x 11 paper size for you to select.
They must have a reason for forcing that paper size. It allows a printable area of 8.24 x 8.0
So I would keep the profile, and the instructions on what paper to select (Fine Art Premium Matte) and make my print!

Hope I helped.

It has 21 choices from which to select your paper type.
20 of them are happy with 8.5 x 11 paper size.
The only one that is not acceptable in 8.5 x 11 is the FINE ART MATTE.

There must be a reason, but you would have to ask Canon or perhaps even the paper manufacturer.
Maybe something as simple as being susceptible to roller marks, and allowing prints only where the rollers don't touch???
