Is a separate printer driver needed for Windows (on Parallels) than for Mac itself?

I have updated the driver for my printer on my new iMac. Yet now when trying to print envelopes through WordPerfect on Windows in the Parallels section, it is not responding correctly. Do I need a separate driver or setup for those programs running in Parallels?
My printer is HP Envy Photo 7855.
Thanks.

Hello, did you share your printer from the Mac side? How does your printer respond? Did you get any specific error message?
 
I have done so many things to update that printer in my Windows side that I can't remember all the steps. I do know that other programs in Windows can print (e.g., wordpad, QuattroPro). And WordPerfect itself was printing everything except the envelopes correctly until some recent change I made.
Some setting has changed so that when I open the Print box, it lists the printer etc but the Print button is greyed out.
Thanks for any help.
