Print Deploy lets you see which printers you can print to, and add other printers.

The My printers list shows the printers that have been automatically installed for you. These are likely to be the ones you'll use the most.

However, depending on how your system is set up, there might also be other printers you can use.

SysAdmins often make other printers available if you move between different locations, or for using a special printer, like a plotter. You can find and install these printers via the Add printers list.

HPU recently introduced a cloud-based printing system for students, faculty and staff. In this system, print jobs are sent to a cloud and can be released with your passport card at any printer on campus. Computers in HPULibraries are automatically set up to send jobs to the Follow-Me Print cloud. You can also install the printer on your laptop. See the pages in this guide for step-by-step instructions.

Initial setup is easy and quick:

1. Touch your passport card to the printer until it beeps.

2. Enter your HPU e-mail username (handle only--not the full e-mail) and password, and press “set.”

3.You will get a confirmation that your account was set up.

Your card is now connected to your account. You only have to do this once—now a simple touch of your card logs you in! If you lose your card, you can still log in manually in the future.

Please note that this system ties your print job to your individual HPU account. When you send a job to the cloud, it can ONLY be released under your account. If you are logged into a library computer under your friend's username and password and you send a job to the cloud, then, you will NOT be able to release this job with your passport card. The computer account and printing accounts must match for the job to show up.
