Can't connect Chromebook to HP Colour laser MFP178nw printer

[DJudd1]

Hi everyone, hopefully someone can help.  Just purchased a chromebook and HP colour laser MFP 178nw printer.  The printer is connected to the wifi network.   Ive connected the chromebook to the same network, and amy trying to print.  Ive gone to settings and add printer, and can see my printer listed.  When I go to add it, it says that my chromebook is not compatible with my printer.   Anyone have any ideas?
