If your printer is one of these, it should be possible to use it without having to install additional drivers, provided that the printer and the iMac are connected to the same network (Wi-Fi router).
The printer manufacturer may require the use of a special app (such as HP Smart) for setup, ink management, and similar purposes.
Normally, you would begin by connecting the printer to the Wi-Fi router. If necessary, and supported by the router, WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) may make this process easier.
