How do I connect my HP LaserJet 200nw to my iMac over Wi-Fi? Both my printer and my iMac are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. When in the printers & scanners window, I click the plus sign and an Add Printer dialog opens. On the printer tab, no printer shows up. On the network tab, I enter the printers IP and click add, but and error states that it is unable to connect to the IP due to an error. Please advise.
Mac mini, macOS 10.13
Thank you both for your assistance in this matter. Eero Support showed me that my iMac was connected to the Guest network, and therefore would not connect to the printer. Now that it is on the primary Netwerk, it shows up when adding a printer and prints without a problem.

Thank you for the information. According to the specifications (https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/hp-laserjet-pro-200-color-printer-m251-series/5097632/model/5097639/document/c03315004), the HP LaserJet Pro 200 color Printer M251nw supports AirPrint (a model with the somewhat different name HP LaserJet Pro color M251nw is also listed in About AirPrint - Apple Support). An AirPrint-enabled printer can be used without having to install additional drivers, provided that the computer and the printer are connected to the same Wi-Fi network (router).
If the printer is properly connected to the Wi-Fi network (Connect an AirPrint printer to a Wi-Fi network – Apple Support (UK)), but not recognised by the computer, you may want to try resetting the printing system and re-adding the printer as an AirPrint printer.

If necessary, try the following procedure:
Power off the Wi-Fi router, the printer, the iMac, and all other devices/computers. Wait two to three minutes. Power on the router. Wait two to three minutes. Power on the printer. Wait a minute or two. Power on the iMac. Finally, power on all other devices/computers.
Hi,
Please check the exact printer model. Could it be, for example, the HP Neverstop Laser MFP 1200nw, an HP LaserJet Pro 200 color Printer M251nw, or possibly an HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw?
When using a Wi-Fi-connected printer, (or even RJ45) it is good practice to reserve a static DHCP address in your router exclusive to that printer, and below the normal range of DHCP address assignments. That way your printer IP address is fixed and always discoverable in the macOS add a printer dialog.
A MacBook Pro on the same network can connect and print.
This one HP LaserJet Pro 200 color Printer M251nw. It will not connect.
Thank you for your report. Good to hear that it is working now.
