Unless you did not mention everything that you do in your work flow
description I see a few possible omissions:
In the print with preview dialog are you first selecting 'page setup' and
making sure that your i9900 is the selected printer.
Then the same thing after clicking on the 'print' button.
Also, I don't see where you have selected the paper in the printer driver -
after selecting your rr paper in PS Red River probably tells you to select
something like glossy photo paper in the printer driver.
In the printer driver selections you will also need to select 'no color
management.'

Yeah, the i9900 is selected and everywhere it gives me the chance I
have "Glossy Photo Paper" selected and ICM unchecked, Color Adjustment
= Manual and Print Type = None. I  do not see however where I can
explicitly select 'no color management.' I thought that having ICM
uncheck and print type None was effectively doint that.

I have an i9900 printer but am currently using it on a Mac (you are probably
using yours on a Windows machine).  I can't imagine, however, that the
printer driver options would be that different.  When printing to the i9900
clicking the print button in PS brings up the printer driver dialog box.  In
that window there are numerous selectable options including Quality and
Media, Color Options, etc, etc.  In the Color Options choice there should be
an additional option to select 'Color Correction - None.'  If you don't find
that option I guess a Windows user will have to help out!

I have been following this thread+responses. It does sound like you 
are doing everything correctly.  Have you successfully printed on any 
media other than the red river satin?  Note that at least one poster 
had similar persistent color cast problems on an i9900 but a 
replacement was OK.

This pdf pretty much sums up how to set CM with a Canon printer:

And just a sanity check: for sure in the printer driver all Effects 
are disabled?

If I had this problem, I would probably try reinstalling the printer 
driver, rebooting between uninstall/reinstall.
