In some cases the download you get might only be the required files and not an install. You would need to manually install the printer in that case.

I don’t understand. I’ve gone to add printer and tied to add the printer that way. I’ve even tried to add it using the printer connected to the router however I can’t seem to get it connected. The router address that isn’t saying in the printer when I try to put it in the browser nothing comes up. I don’t know if it’s the driver part that I’m getting wrong or the connection.
