Windows 10: How do I fix distorted label printing?

My HP Desk Jet 3755 prints fine normally but when I tried to print some labels using MS Word, Mailings, Labels, the print was distorted. How do I fix it? I've tried changing fonts, margins, and everything I could think of. I've even connected it via USB but it didn't connect. How do I make that reconnect?

Non Print of Avery Labels HP printer 6978

Multiple attempts to print label # 5260 not found in the Avery list and # 5160 fails to print and does not populate in the print queue. Labels I had previously used # 8162 are also not in the options for Avery with Windows 10.
