I'm trying to print 5.25"x7.25" inch envelopes in my HP7645. Photo tray won't open

[elmarco1]

I can't get the photo tray to handle 5.25"x7.25" wide envelopes.  Any suggestions?  Very time sensitive!

Welcome to the HP User Community.

Use the main tray for your envelopes.

Load the envelopes in the main tray using the instructions in the User Guide

Starting on Page 13

If needful,

If the full driver printer software is installed,

Create a Custom Paper Size Form

HP Document: HP Printers - Creating Custom Paper Sizes

Example - Custom Paper Size Form

Custom_Paper_Size_Form_Examples_3

Alert the printer to the paper size / type loaded in the paper tray.

Use either the printer control panel or use the Embedded Web Server (EWS)

Tray and Paper Management

Check / Adjust / Retain the Paper at the Printer Display Panel

Open Printer Tray,

NOTE

If you are having trouble with getting the printer to accept (new) paper,

Remove the stack of paper from the tray

Lightly flex (do not fan) the paper to separate the single sheets

Restack together so the edges match along all sides

Return the paper to the tray

else

Wait a few seconds

Close Tray

IF applicable for your printer:

On the Printer Control Display Panel,

Click Modify / Change / No-Yes (wording varies), adjust the paper size and type, Click OK

No Size?  If the size of the Paper Size is not in the Drop-down list, Select Custom

Note:  Not all printers allow selection of “Custom”

Example - Retain / Modify (Edit) / Check Paper Size / Paper Type - Tray and Paper Management

Retain_Printing_Preferences_11

Example - Word > Mailings > Envelopes

Note the reminder to select "Custom" size and enter the dimensions for your envelope.
