I am suddenly unable to print photos on 6x4 paper as it is not appearing anymore. All I can see is A4 and 5x7. I have only had this printer since November and it used to work out what size by what was in the printer tray.

I have updated printer firmware and updated my Mac. I use HP photo paper and have used several apps. Worth mentioning that I have only had this printer since November and in the beginning was able to print 6x4 photos. The phone/iPad seemed to sense what size photo paper was in the top tray and I didn’t need to put in the size manually. Note I have to open the app and the drop down for the upper tray is A4 or 5x7. I am confused but see online that others have had the same problem albeit they were using Windows not a Mac.
