I have always printed photos/screenshots from my iPhone to my HP Envy Photo 7100 printer with no problem. Now I can’t b/c it’s hung up on “printer needs paper”. It’s full of paper. I have to email the picture to myself and print it from my laptop. What can I do to fix???

Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
Update --
After trying the suggestions to fix the actual settings,
Consider: Restart Everything, including the router that controls your network.
Original Content
Suggestions
Check whether the paper size / type are supported by the printer.
Product Specifications for the HP ENVY Photo 7120 All-in-One Printer (Z3M37A)
Section Paper Handling
Next,
Check whether the printer is aware of the paper size and type.
Options
Reload the paper and "modify" the paper size / type on the printer control panel
Use the Embedded Web Server (EWS) to check / adjust the Tray and Paper settings on the printer.
Reminder: HP Smart Mobile requires that paper size / type be adjusted before the content is opened for print.
