Help. I'm adding printer to Mac desktop. When I click on add printer there is nothing there to select from. How do I get this printer added?

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.

I don't see the printer in my add printer menu. What would cause this problem?

what would cause me not see the printer when I go to Mac to add printer? Nothing is displayed.
