Gimp is a RGB raster editor and is not the best tool for creating a suitable
file from a PS CMYK template.

The CMYK file needs to be converted to RGB first.

The freeware Imagemagick will this. However it is **command line** so be
prepared to use a terminal.

Using Windows the command will be

magick "file name with spaces.psd" card.png

That might give several files which can be opened in Gimp using File -> Open As
Layers

Guessing lots of instructions as the screenshot. 

If you can get that far, then come back with more information on the format the
printer requires.
