HP Envy 7640
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

The paper size default on my HP 7640 is A4.  I always use letter size and would like to make letter the permanent default size without having to change it every time I print.  How do I do that?

Many thanks for your help.  Now I won't get frustrated by forgetting to change it every time I print.

Can't change the paper size despite having tried several times.
