Printer drivers for Mac are handled differently than for Windows.  The driver is provided by the Mac OS.

The issue is nothing is populating. I downloaded the Smartprint app and it shows my Officejet 5200 is ready, but when I go to printer/scanner to add printer nothing is displayed. I go to add but again there is nothing there for me to add.
