HP deskjet 5650 color with the IMac use

Hope you can help - tried to install the new driver to activate my printer to print in color when it is connected to the new Imac.  Operating system is OS X Maverick and is not in the drop-down options on the HP website.  My printer is really too old to be compatible (printed in color) with my imac?  It prints fine in black and white, but just not in full colour.  Have checked the settings and connected a laptop to the same printer and print in color perfectly fine... Tried to download driver OS X but it downloaded then could not open with error message on screen: cannot open the OS X HP Inkjet Installer application because the Power PC applications are no longer supported.

Any ideas to help me please?  Thank you very much...

Hi BBHRJane,

Apple offers third-party software for scanners and printers by using the software update. To set up your printer or scanner, just connect it to your Mac. If the software is needed and available, OS X automatically downloads and installs.

This article is a comprehensive list of the models currently supported for printer and scanner and associated software provided by third-party vendors as of November 14, 2013. OS X: printer and scanner software available for download.

The Deskjet 5650 isn't on the list. Although I prefer not to be the bearer of bad news, the fact of the matter is, the Deskjet 5650 does not have a compatible driver to work with 10.9.

On a positive note, you could call HP. HP may be able to offer a more recent model, which is compatible for a cost reduced. The number to call HP is 1-800-474-6836 for the Canada and US or you can Contact HP worldwide.< click="" here="" and="" select="" your="">
