HP Envy Photo 7855
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am running Windows 10 on a Mac with Parallels (which allows Windows to run alongside Mac OS).  I am trying to set up my HP Envy 7855 printer to work properly when printing envelopes.

I have an updated printer driver on my Mac, but do I need a separate printer driver installed under Windows?  When I try to do that, I don't seem to getting the right one, or doing it right.

So, I am wondering if anyone here is familiar with using a printer from the virtual network of Parallels.  It is basically Windows running side by side with the Mac OS.  I am assuming the problem has to do with the two systems working together.

But I may be wrong, and it is simply a setup issue for the printer itself.   

I sure could use some suggestions here.......      Thank you.
