I don’t think you can do this from Photoshop.
Your best bet is to place in a layout, bleeding off the page, and print from there.
Or <gasp> create the cut marks in photoshop.
Then why would they say in the help files to set the bleed to get the crop marks inside the image?
good question.
that bleed setting is useless.
How do you get the corner crop marks to print inside the image? The help files say to set the bleed in print with preview.I have tried that but it doesn’t make a difference
Any help out there?

You can set the corner crop marks in PS, easlily. But I don’t understand the "inside" part.
File|Print with Preview. Show More Options: Checked. Pick Output from dropdown, check Corner Crop marks.
The image has to fit within the printable area of your page and printer.

If you can’t see them in the preview, they won’t print.
I think (though maybe I’m wrong) that he want’s to print a proof with the bleed running out past the crop marks.
I think that’s all he’s trying to do, all within his printable area.
It is odd that the "bleed" setting in the print dialog supposedly should offset the trim marks from the outer corners by the amount entered, yet when you use the option, it has no effect.
Then again, why not just print the darn thing out without marks and measure with a ruler and draw your trims as a cutting guide?

I have a hp 5500 printer and am trying to nest 3 of the same image across 36" media.I then have to cut the 3 images at roughly 12"(with printer margins built in).The problem is the image is a fish with white background and no square reference edges.I only want to be making two cuts to seperate the images leaving the outside images un trimmed.Adding corner crop marks to the outside and keeping the same image size makes the printing size to big to nest 3 across.Doing this,I would also have to be making 6 cuts to seperate the images.This is not a problem if I was only doing 3 but I need to run 500.Thats alot of extra trimming!!
If I can print the corner crop marks (with the bleed to place them inside the image like the help file says it will)
I will be laughing.
Hope this helps explain my situation
