I want to set up a very old Dell laptop running Linux Lite with my new HP WiFi compatible printer. Yes, it's connected to my WiFi network at home. Will the directions on the following link work with it, at: https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_2059279-1992970-16

Hi,
The steps above are intended for a Chromebook, not for Linux.
You may visit HPLIP for Linux information:

I cannot see Linux Lite as a listed distribution and your OS vesion is unknown, but a manual installation should work if your OS meet the HPLIP System Requirements:
