Envy 5660 printer

In printing addresses on envelopes, the printer does not recognize # 6 3/4 envelopes.  Any suggestions?

Which software do you use to print envelope ? Many people use Microsoft Word and use Custom Size option as shown

I believe the problem is with the HP envy printer.  I can use Windows -mailing-envelopes and it will display the 6 3/4 size however, when I go to the printer to put the envelopes in, I get a message on the printer "Did you change the paper?" and then it lists paper, photo, envelope sizes.....but doesn't include the 6 3/4 size as an option.

Apologies for jumping in unannounced.
