How to Add Printers

This article explains how to add an existing HSE Schools printer to be usable for printing on staff devices.

 Desktops and Laptops

Printers are added through an online portal called PrinterLogic. This is accessible through either the ‘Add A Printer’ button that should be on the desktops of all staff computers, or by manually going to the website https://hseschools.printercloud.com/.

  1. This website will require a piece of software called a ‘browser extension’ to enable it to work. This extension is installed automatically on HSE-issued devices.

  2. Using Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome to add printers will work for Windows devices, while on Macs, only Google Chrome is compatible for adding printers.

  3. You may be asked to ‘enable’ the browser extension at the top of the page before use. This is normal and required to be able to add printers.

  4. When all of the above setup is complete, you will be presented with a map of your school building overlayed with icons of available printers. Click on the desired printer to begin configuration.

  5. It may take a few seconds for any activity to begin--this is normal. You will then be asked if you would like to install the listed printer.

  6. Once you have confirmed, a brief installation process will initialize. After this, the printer will be available for you to use.

  7. Stick to 3-5 steps per task to avoid overloading readers.

iPads

Printers are added though our ‘PrinterLogic’ app

  1. After accessing the PrinterLogic app, manually type in ‘hseschools.printercloud.com' before clicking 'next’.

  2. Click ‘SIGN IN WITH LOGIN WITH MICROSOFT', then the user will be prompted to enter their HSE credentials. If you receive a pop up ‘this site is trying to access other apps’, please allow.

  3. Towards the top of the screen, click ‘Add Printer’.

  4. Select desired HSE Printer(s).

  5. You will now be able to open your application and Print (select ‘PrinterLogic’ and not ‘Print’)

Ensure target printer is selected before clicking ‘Print’. Steps 1-4 may need to be repeated in between prints.

If you receive a pop up ‘this site is trying to access other apps’, please allow.

Only computers issued by HSE Technology can print to HSE printers. Student teachers, visitors, and others bringing their own devices cannot use HSE printers.
