When duplex printing with the Canon Pixma iX6820, the back side will be printed an extra 1/16" to the right, making the front and back misaligned. This is due to the 1/16" distance of the rolls in the printer.
In order to align both sides, you would need to move the back image the distance that is not aligned.
